I've just been put on Quetiapine (300mg).

I was kinda forced on to it, and am scared about what it's going to do to me.

Does anyone have any experience with the drug??

I'm just really not happy about it, and I want to know what's gonna happen, and if anyone on here has experienced the possible side-effects???

I like to recommend that people investigating meds do so from a clinical perspective and from a consumer's perspective. Here's two sites that will help you do that very thing:
rxlist.com

askapatient.com
By reviewing both sites you'll have a more concise idea of what the drug is supposed to do for you and also, what kind of experiences people who have actually taken that specific drug have had.

This article may also be helpful if you wish to review the matter with your psychiatrist: Reclaiming your power during medication appointments with your psychiatrist
