I was on 600mg of Seroquel for almost 2 years after the trauma so I could sleep but after leaving the bad environment & moving 2100 miles away, I was afraid to be that totally out of it the way it made me. I would have never been able to take care of me, 7 dogs & my farm in the hung over condition the Seroquel left me in. I still have trouble sleeping & when stressed I have nightmares but not about what happened during the trauma. Maybe these dreams are about other traumatic stuff I sort of blocked out of my memory though I always knew I struggled to get away from parents & my H.....not physically like my dreams but emotionally.

Living with no real schedule I just sleep when I get exhausted.
