I go into shops that I think I have made orders at only to find that I am in the wrong place. My driving has taken a downward dive and this week I backed into a pole. I am disappointed with even how i park my car now. My brain just feels like it's in a fog. I forget so much.
When I got my second wind in regards to getting down all I wanted to do was to stop the Seroquel at once. Reason has now prevailed and I am content to take the Seroquel down 25mg each month or fortnight depending on how my body tolerates it. It will be a sensible taper with the support of my p'doc.
Years ago one night and the morning after I didnt take any meds. I was in hospital at the time. I couldn't walk to save myself.
I am really hoping to get a better level of concentration back.

I offer my apology: I carefully read your original post, then promptly forgot what I read....ah, an example of exactly what you're describing
Yes, I understand. The cognitive lapses are not only frustrating, they truly impair one's life. I do believe that the very low dose will help lessen those cognitive issues. I hope so, my friend.
