After being on 25mg of cipralex for almost a year I've been prescribed 30mg of seroquel because the cipralex just doesn't seem to be cutting it for my social anxiety, motivation, and mood regulation with my major depression. As in I'm good most days (4 of 7 days of the week) and the rest are shitty and I completely feel pathetic/lethargic/sad. I've been on the seroquel for almost three weeks now.
Even though the seroquel is a very low dose it knocks me out at night and I can't wake up until around 3 o'clock the next day. Then wake up and feel very lethargic and sad, seeing as I'm not productive and wasting the day away sleeping.
I want to quit the seroquel and haven't taken it the past two nights but now I can't sleep. What to do?

Wow seems like a lose lose situation huh? Well I'm sorry that u feel this way. It must suck!! I had a friend that was on seroquel and she was a mess. Mean and ugly. I would not ever take that. Also I thought seroquel was only a sleep aid. Not for anything else!

It's a terrible situation to be in haha. No seroquel is an anti psychotic but my doc prescribed it for mood stability and concentration.
