I was put on 25 mg. of seroquel for sleep. (My husband also filed for divorce against me and left me in near-destitution. He is a physician, we were married for 21 years, and have 2 children. I am presently non-functional.)

I was very slender all of my life, but have packed on 20 lbs. over the past year and-a-half. I have very little motivation to live, and really stay alive for my 15 year-old daughter and my little dog.

I need the seroquel to sleep, and sleeping is about the only thing I look forward to. I don't know if the weight gain is due to the seroquel (I'm also taking Prozac, 20.mg., and klonopin .25-.5 mg. daily.)

I feel like a log. I always had a great sense of humor and fought to live (I've struggled with depressions for 35 years.)

I am also on a strict, self-imposed 1200 calorie/day diet. I don't eat sweets, but I drink 2 glasses of red wine every day.<font color="#000088"> </font>
