Hopefully you'll get the right dose that you need to help you settle during this phase.
Best of luck!

When I was prescribed the Seroquel in July I was in a pretty severe depression which is what caused me to seek help. I couldn't fall asleep and then when I finally did fall asleep I couldn't get up in the morning. I'm sure most have experienced this and it sucks. I emailed my pdoc yesterday and he refilled my prescription so I guess I'll be on it for awhile.
I noticed last night it took me well over an hour after I had taken it to fall asleep where it used to only take about 20 minutes. I guess maybe that could be due to my mood being a little improved over when I was first diagnosed. I'm going to try taking it a little earlier and see if that helps me get to sleep by the time I want to go to bed.
