Seroquel and crazy things

I was on Lexapro 10mg and Seroquel 100mg. Lexapro for depression and Seroquel for sleep. I asked my doctor if I could get off of Lexapro and just take the Seroquel for both the depression and insomnia. The doctor took me off Lexapro and raised my Seroquel to 200mg at night. Now, my boyfriend tells me I do crazy things in my sleep....swatting at things, talking crazy, grabbing him and saying crazy stuff. I don't remember doing these things....and its starting to worry me.

I have been on seroquel for 5 years now. Of course I gained weight, but I used healthy diet and exercise to maintain a healthy weight. However, despite all that my cholesterol is at 260. The doctor tried to say it wasn't Seroquel, but I know it is. I have weened myself off over the past few weeks and it has now been 4 days without it. I am constantly nauseous, cannot sleep and at this point am scared to death because I remember how horrifying getting off Effexor was. Can anyone tell me if this gets any better?

Will turn you into an emotionless, lethargic, drunk, apathetic zombie that has no more creative or human spark than a turnip does. Throw this crap in the garbage - NOW! I was prescribed this devil spawn drug from a PAIN MANAGEMENT doctor who told me it would help potentiate the Tylenol 3's he gave me. Drink a case of whiskey and smoke a crack rock the size of a buick and you'll essentially reach the point I was at after one of these pills. I started saying crazy things to my Girlfriend, started rearranging the refrigerator, slept for 10 hours (and I normally only sleep 4-6 hours) and woke up with these thoughts in my head like "What am I doing with my life? Nothing is going right, Everything I touch turns to hell". By about 10:30 in the morning at work, it finally started coming out of me and I started waking up and realized just how bad it was. DO NOT take this medication unless you are so severely psychotic that you simply can't make yourself stop killing squirrels. Why the hell a DOCTOR would prescribe this evil in pill form for Pain Management is so far beyond me, it's like wiping before you poop, just don't make no sense.

I only take 50mg when I absolutely cannot sleep and just can't take it anymore, which is about twice a week. When I take it, I get up (not wake up) in the middle of the night and do crazy things. My husband has caught me and just yells at me to come back to bed. The next day after I take it, things are in weird places and even sometimes missing. I only have hazy memories of doing these things.
