Seroquel Withdrawal (Insomnia?)

I've been through menopause and am going through seroquel withdrawal with my son. While my sleep quality suffered - thanks in part to hot flashes and night sweats - it was no where near as bad as the insomnia caused by seroquel withdrawal. Extreme insomnia is probably the most common symptom for those withdrawing from seroquel. Tinnitus (ringing in the ears) is also commonly associated with seroquel and/or seroquel withdrawal. From what I have read, it can take months to feel "normal" and healthy after quitting seroquel. My son experienced nocturnal seizures, extreme somnolence, high blood pressure, racing heart, daily nosebleeds, and rapid weight gain while taking seroquel. It is a powerful and dangerous drug. Getting off it is going to be a difficult process, but staying on it is not an option. He is only 14 years old. I am so angry with his doctor for prescribing it for him and even angrier with myself for not learning more about it before giving it to him. Good luck to you - with both the seroquel withdrawal and the menopause.
