My therapist is a LMHC that works with her that i see every week. Just thought id put that out there.

I was prescribed Seroquel about ten years ago when I was going through a really bad spell with insomnia. Worked well. BUT watch out because for some people, me included, it triggered
major appetite issues. I felt like I could eat the entire buffet and still want more! I finally had to stop taking it because I was struggling so hard not to eat in an out-of-control manner. I stopped the med and my appetite went back to normal. Good luck with it but just be aware of the appetite issues for some people!
