Update: 7 Weeks off Seroquel: It has been seven weeks since going off Seroquel. I have experienced extreme muscle fatigue. I have also experienced gastro issues which has been problematic. I had read where 95% of neurotransmitters are in your gut.......so it makes sense this is happening. I have been even keel with my moods which supports my theory that I am not bipolar but had a manic episode brought on my cold turkey stopping of Prozac after 15 years at 800 mg. Not the smartest thing I have ever done. Once in a great whie I will have an itchy feeling which Benedryl helps. Not bad like it was when I first went off.

Hi
“manic episode brought on my cold turkey stopping of Prozac after 15 years at 800 mg.”
I believe you meant to say 80mg not 800.
Congratulations on getting off Seroquil. Although it can be helpful in certain patients, in my opinion (which doesn’t matter) it is over prescribed.
Did you stop the Seroquil slowly?
