So I've been coming off Seroquel for months and couldn't get off the last dosage of 50 mg because I couldn't sleep. I saw my pdoc yesterday and he took me off the Seroquel and upped my Trazadone from 50 to 100 (he won't go higher because I tend to go manic, and then he added 0.2 mg of Clonidine. All of this is taken at bedtime. I only slept 3 hours and it was crappy sleep. It's been 16 hours since I took this and I've been so drowsy and dizzy. Work was not fun. I have such a hard time getting to sleep and staying asleep, racing mind. I practice all of the healthy sleep practices.
Has anyone been on this and these problems? Does it have to build up to help with sleep? If so does it get better, because I'm scared of going manic and the side effects I'm having.
