Does Seroquel make most people tired? It's better taking Seroquel then having mental health issues at a higher peak. I have so much anxiety, and it's a mystery as to why I have it so bad. It's a lonely affliction.

I have to push myself to get things done. BF

I am sorry you suffer so.

I take 800mg total. I take 700 at night, and I take the other 100 in the morning. I have to take some in the morning because it helps with my OCD and anxiety symptoms, but that 100mg is all I can tolerate at baseline. I have been on much higher doses during the day when I was manic, but I was so high they were not sedating at all.

I have built up a tolerance for Seroquel at this point, but between it and all the other meds I take, it has to be contributing to my fatigue.

I think it is sedating for everyone, at least initially. A lot of people stop taking it before they build up any tolerance for that reason.

When I worked at the VA, they prescribed small doses of Seroquel off label for patients as a sleep aide, but many of them were psych patients anyway.

I went to a festival last weekend, and I became so tired that I left early. I went to the concession stand, and had something to eat. Then I drove home. It's a long drive from there. I stopped at a grocery store, and got some food.

I don't take Seroquel during the day, so I was not on it at the time. The first 4,or 5 hours, after taking it before bed is unpleasant, but necessary. I feel like I could faint in that 4, or 5 hour period of time if I get up for any reason.

The long term affect helps me with my OCD, and anxiety. I don't think that there is a substitute for it. BF

how was the festival? I am glad that you went!
