My brain chemistry hates EVERYTHING, and I mean just about EVERYTHING, and I'm doing pretty will on this medication. I hope you do as well on it as I did! You'll do great in university! I'm just glad you got your diagnosis and meds before uni; I was misdiagnosed four times before and screwed up my GPA.
That being said, if anything, and I mean ANYTHING at all, feels wrong with your meds, let your doc know so you can try and work it out. Don't let it mess with your GPA. :333 Wishing you well my friend! <3

Thanks for the well wishes! I'm sorry to hear about your misdiagnosis:/ I must say things are pretty good already so far. I don't know if small dosage as 50mg is enough to make a difference but it certainly is for me lol. I feel somewhat myself again. I'm able to enjoy music like old times, motivated to lose weight and just many things that I was missing out on before this. I don't know if it would get way better when I increase the dosage. So far not much of side effect. Little hair loss, itch on my back and pimples popping up, but I have skin conditions so I guess its normal(I will discuss this with my doc).
Oh and, as for sleeplessness, I'm able to sleep 5 to 10 hours a day! I don't take Seroquel for my insomnia(and hypersexuality) anymore as things seems leveled. But I do wake up few times in the middle of the night due to vivid dreams, but able to fall back to sleep.
