I started Seroquel this July, and let's say, we're not compatible to put it nicely. Dry mouth, difficulty swallowing, and restless legs came with this drug. At first, my doctor put me on 100 mg and I slept for two days. After those days ended, I no longer slept and the doctor upped my dosage to 400 (but I only did 300 mg). After a few days and I mean few, I decided I did not want to continue the upped dosage and tapered back to 100 mg. I learned how to pill cut down to 50 mg for another two weeks and finally I'm on 25 mg. Come this Saturday I'm done.

I expect a mild to moderate withdrawal (I was feeling some effects as I tapered down). I bought Melatonin, sleep bath, valerian and lemon balm to have at my disposal in case insomnia strikes (My sleep has pretty much been broken). Should I have anything else handy?
