Coping with Quetiapine Drowsiness

How do you cope with the drowsiness from quetiapine? I find myself sleeping well over 12 hours a day making my life just sleep, school, or work. When I am asleep you cannot wake me up until the drowsiness wears off. I’ve even fallen asleep while in the middle of typing a message

How much do you take? I've also had to deal with drowsiness but it's not as big of a problem for me

Definitely talk to your doctor about it and get it lowered or changed. If its disrupting your life it’s not for you :(

That’s crazy! I’ve been on it a year and it’s still making me debilitatingly sleepy

Took me about a week of sleeping all the time, then it wore off, now I take it at night to help me fall asleep, it assures I get enough sleep at night but no longer causes drowsiness. It should wear off shortly

Yeah same but now that I’ve gotten used to it I get tired during the day as well
