Hey Bizi. Just 25 mg of Seroquel can be a strong dose for some people. It does have a major anti-anxiety affect for some people. BF

Thanks guys!!!

I've heard that Seroquel can be really sedating, and they actually gave it in low doses to some psych patients at night at the VA.

So, I'm done with "the program." They cleared me at the screening. Of course, they don't ask about mental illness and I didn't offer. Aside for a couple of questions that I fudged, they really only ask about current drinking and I was honest about that.

So, we'll be saving a lot of money. I won't have to stress about making appointments or begging for rides/wrangling cabs. I'm happy.
And I was relaxed for several hours LOL

Anyway, I saw my pdoc after I went to the center. She's going to leave my meds where they are for now. I've come a LONG way since December, I'm stable, and she doesn't want to over-medicate me. Sounds like a plan.

As far as the anxiety, I can take 1mg 3xday but I almost never take the whole pill. Sometimes I skip it in the afternoon. I'm trying not to abuse it, but I guess I have no right to complain about being anxious.

My anxiety has been much worse in light of all this legal business. It was a big relief when court was over, and now the program, but I still have the classes. I know I'm going to fixate on that now...

I'm having a pretty bad MS relapse...

I'll be on hiatus until things are better under control.
