Maya,

I have taken so many of these meds, they kinda have become a whirlpool of bad reactions. For the last 11 years, I have had the Dx of Major Depression Recurrant, Major Anxiety. I had finally gotten the problems under control without the use of any meds & therapy hadn't really done very much....(I found out that this is how my pdoc sees it & doesn't really understand). I was hit by a trauma at the end of last year, with my Mother's death to top it all off. I was so sick & exhausted due to everything I was living through that my pdoc decided to have me take klonopin. It quit working within weeks of starting & when I finally made it home, I found some seroquel that had been perscribed quite a while ago.

My problem due to the trauma & PTSD that came following it causes horrible nightmares & depersonalization issues. I experimented with the dosages of the seroquel until I found the level that works to knock me out at night. It allows me to sleep but I still have the depersonalization issues I am dealing with. Sometimes it is hard to tell if that might come from the med or if it is from the illness. Sometimes I feel that way & take the seroquel & it feels even worse....sometimes I take the med & dont feel that way.....

With me it is just so hard to tell what is causing what.....but I love it that I can sleep better now & that is worth a lot.
