Getting off of Seroquel

I've been on it more than 20 yrs, I think.
I am experiencing metabolic syndrome at it's worst, finally, too.

I am not anti medication, but I am serious this time about getting off. I do not have medical or psychiatric support. I can't get calls returned from my psychiatrist's office. I haven't been able to find a counselor in nearly two years. I became permanently disabled three years ago due to lithium toxicity.
Good luck to you.

Sorry to hear about your difficulties. Whatever the case, you have to treat your diabetes. If you need insulin, take it. Explore the low carb diet because it actually works to reverse diabetes if you cut your carbs enough. I know because I'm on it.

If you stop your meds, you may have a relapse of your disease, whatever it is. It sounds like you need a basis of support before you go any future. Don't withdraw on your own, it could be disastrous.

Hope you can find some face to face help in your community.
