I have gained weight on Seroquel as well. I have never heard of anyone who hasn't. People say things like: It makes me want to eat the walls. It makes me want to eat the couch. Etc.
I think Seroquel might be the worst AP med for weight gain. (?)
I have seen several people lose wieight on other meds.. My H lost 30 pounds on Geodon; yet, he'd gained 30 pounds on Depakote.
Any chance of your doctor taking you off Seroquel?
Last night was my first night of a taper and it is a tough day today. I did not sleep last night and am exhausted..
Good luck with losing weight.
