Seroquel

I've been prescribed 400mg of it for years. Too many years. Over the last twenty years or so I've been diagnosed with a variety of psychiatric disorders - they've finally decided on Treatment Resistant Depression (in other words, they don't know what the fuck to do with me) and of all the meds I've been on, it's one of the ones I've loathed the most. Yes, some nights I'll sleep after a fashion when taking it, but it makes me feel thickened, slow, more depressed not less, congested, breathing is harder, and I end up hungry, and both craving crappy food and finding it ridiculously difficult to resist eating said food - result? obesity.

Just as a bonus, when trying to discuss the issue of my severe anxiety that was getting worse over the last 2 years, the best the psychiatrist could offer was increasing the dosage of the Seroquel. Needless to say,I poltely declined.

I'm glad it helps some people - particularly you, cwcville - but my personal experience of it was grim.

Don't get me wrong, if your diagnosis and symptomology is appropriate, it's definitely worth a shot - but for some it's a nightmare.

 
@BunnyPunch after 3 months Ive just let it sit in my medicine cabinet , it seemed in the honeymoon period it was great. But after my tolerance went up those effects went away with my anxiety still present :(. Now it just makes me feel groggy all day like I'm on cloud 9 (not in a good way). I would have to agree with you 100%. I had the same experience with anxiety too, they just wanted to up the dose. Ugh its frustrating to say the least! 

 
@BunnyPunch@cwcville Similar experience for me.  I was prescribed it to help with Bipolar issues, and my psych was like "oh and it works great for anxiety!"  It ended up not helping with my BP issues but my doc wanted me to keep taking it for anxiety and insomnia.  Cuz of the bipolar issues i was taking 700mg at one point.  Blergh.  I have friends who will occasionally take llike 25mg to fall asleep and it works like a charm, and im on 700mg (400mg ER and 300mgIR daily) and im up to the wee hours.  Was on it for years.  Took about 8 months to full wean myself off.  Was hell but so glad i did.  A number of anti-psychotics (only taken short-term tho) have saved my life, but that is not one of them!  Happy that it works for some.  These days it seems one of the go-tos for docs prescribing for anxiety or sleep.  That and gabapentin.

  9. PlanetExpress @ PlanetExpress: @brofessormd this isn't even the first time we've seen this whole setup go through this mess. There seems to be some sort of pattern here; every time stuff gets rocky with shipments, missed deliveries, or a pile of refund requests, it always cycles back around. Honestly, watching this routine play out since 2021 has been wild. Just something to keep in mind when making plans.
  10. P @ piratepenguin: So they are pink hello kittys. Ya I'll test but probably won't take them at all
  11. DutchRCshop @ DutchRCshop: @piratepenguin Dont take without testing! Probably amfetamine or XTC. Small chance its something else but still, how tf you get random pills in the mail lol
  12. moai @ moai: @piratepenguin probably xtc or similar but don’t take it without testing it. I would definitely test them, could really be anything.
  13. st1ckyf1ng4z @ st1ckyf1ng4z: had “confirmed” this. Just this morning someone claimed “Just so you guys know, there is someone else that's taking over and is going to take care of all that was left behind. But I would be patient please“. I would take this all with a grain of salt though, anything is possible, and I don’t want to be spreading rumors
  14. st1ckyf1ng4z @ st1ckyf1ng4z: @CalFresh @brofessormd @intrnt Yes time will tell, I do believe the timing was a little sus as well, people in his signal group were mentioning heart failure, and that people closer to him had to confirmed this
  15. P @ piratepenguin: Just got some random cat head shaped pink pills at the post. I didn't order. Pink cat head with two plugs on the other side. Anyone know what they are?
  16. B @ brofessormd: Slightly sus that Rhodi pastebin was taken down at the exact same time of his friends announcement of his death 🤔
  17. I @ intrnt: @CalFresh time will tell, it's always easy for a Vendor to exit and come by with a new handle.
  18. CalFresh @ CalFresh: @st1ckyf1ng4z what happened to Rhodium?
