In cases where I miss them, I am not tired at all. I once told my old psychiatrist that it is part of Seroquel withdrawal, but he said it was more related to my bipolar illness. I still think otherwise.

Oh, I have done that. Go to bed, unable to sleep for hours. And thinking all the while that something is wrong, why can't I fall asleep? Whoops! Forgot my meds!

It's almost impossible to know whether lack of ability to sleep is due to a med or not. I'm trying desperately to kick Seroquel; I'm on only 12.5mg. But if I don't take that little bit I won't fall asleep for hours, then my sleep is not really sleep...I'm aware of being asleep.
