Before I lost my insurance and access to meds, I was on 300mg of Seroquel for sleep nightly and I was finally receiving some relief from my insomnia after years of not sleeping. I went from half an hour or an hour a night to 7 hours of sleep a night. It was miraculous. The first thing I'm doing once I'm able to get health insurance again is get back on Seroquel.

However, that still doesn't stop these terrible nightmares I've been having about my former employer.
