Hey.

I have taken Seroquel for years along with other meds. I gained a TON of weight. Seroquel is part of a class-action lawsuit regarding weight gain, increased glucose levels, and medication.

That being said, I love it. It takes time to get used to it and it can have a huge hang-over effect. But as you get used to it, the hang-over effect will disappear. Also, you need to try taking it at different times at night, so that you don't have as much hang-over in the morning. I usually eat a late dinner and take mine between 8-9 PM.

Supposedly there is some belief that Seroquel increases sugar cravings, so people eat more sweets. So becareful about that, as well.

Remember, if you don't feel better in a couple of weeks, there are other meds. Not every med is good for every person.

Good luck.
