please you must talk with your doctor, tell him about your tired, I am schizofrenic and I take Seroquel at night and in the day I take E-Zentius 10mgs, to have energy.
tired = depression
I feel what you are going through! I have been on 800 mils,a night for 2 years now,I went from 135 lbs to 195 lbs,and i have great eating habits,no sweets,don't eat at night nothing and it still came on! I was tired all the time,and I really didn't want to even go out! I think the weight gain,really made me worse,then the any depression,because it made me feel so uncomforable about myself.I have Bi-polar and PTSD,and I am also on Lamictal(great medication) and now trazadone for sleep.I have finally begun coming off the seroquel,I am now down to 400 at bedtime! I will be honest I feel more awake everyday,and am doing more things .and I just feel less heavy! I will be off in a month or so! I am looking forward to being myself again.I know how you feel about it rulling your life,I feel the same way! I wish you the best if you choose to come off it! all I have to say is we can do it!! I know anything is possible! There is aways another medication to help the symptoms, I am going to talk about topamax with my doctor in 2 weeks! I will send another comment to let you know how I feel when I come off all the way! Take care of yourself!
