Hi Jaded,
Glad to hear that you have successfully tapered off and have regained your sleep. The 2 months must have been rough. I've tapered Seroquel down to 50mg so far, and have had interrupted sleep. I can't seem to sleep for more than 1.5 hours at a time. Although I'm still getting 4-6 hours a night. The idea of being off it completely kind of scares me. I easily go manic if I don't sleep for a night or two. Would you have any sleep aid suggestions? I'd like to discuss this with my pdoc before I go off the quel. Thanks and good luck. |

also melatonin, Benadryl or even Tylenol PM all make other people tired. I've been having trouble sleeping since the late 80s so i think I actually make myself worse about it. Another person i know takes Restoril which is a benzo type drug. some people like Trazodone too - personally I had nightmares from it but it does work for other people - i was actually getting really really close to taking a low dose of Seroquel to sleep if i didn't start sleeping this week - I still have some 25 mg in my drawer....my pdoc was suggesting it last time and I fought it. SIGH.... One battle down. |

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
