I’ve been on Seroquel for two years and when I first started taking it I had the same symptoms. That’s because I was taking it in the morning. I told my doctor and he said take it at night which made a big difference. I found the lower the dosage the groggier I was. Hope this was helpful!

Oh wow, really? The lower the dosage made you groggier than a higher dose? I take it at night and it definitely knocks me out and I sleep well. But I find I’m still slow and low energy all day long.

Yes the lower dosage made me really groggy. I currently take 100mg at night and 25 mg during the day.

Sometimes continuing the medication can help with the symptoms, by that I mean ur body will possibly gett used to the medication after some time has passed but if not make sure to let ur doctor know

i was on seroquel for a few years and it all but killed me. maybe switch to abilify, it’s less sedating!!

Thank you guys 🙏🏻 I was on Abilify previously and had some bad side effects on that one unfortunately 😞 Psychiatrist wants me to continue Quetiapine for the next 4-6 weeks to determine if it’s a good match but idk. I hate this paralyzingly stuck lethargic feeling 😫

Im so sorry hun that ur feeling that way but stay strong! U got this!!!!

Be the bad ass that u are! ❤️

Personally it didn’t help my mood and just made me tired all the time

I have been on 800mg for 25 years and I take it at night. It does make me sleep better at night and it has helped my mood greatly. The only problem I have is if I have a bad day I want to take it to go to sleep during the day. I have to fight that urge bc I have run out and then I end up crying and having bad mood swings. So if you are taking this make sure you take it correctly.

I took it for a while. It helped me fall asleep but that’s about it. I stopped because it was causing nasal congestion that made it hard to breathe. Don’t get discouraged but also don’t be afraid to try something different. Xypraxa helped with my anxiety A LOT.

The problem I had was it causing nose congestion at night that made it hard to breathe. It did help with sleep but I don’t think it helped with anxiety much. Xypraxa was a lot more effective.

I finally came off the 800 mg and went to 200 mg and started sleeping better at night and not as depressed like I was on 800mg.
