Update on quitting seroquel carolxi
I wanted to post this update as hope for those going off seroquel. My main point is only take the non-drowsy antihistamine when needed, not every day.
I last mentioned that I quit seroquel 6.25 mg and substituted 1 mg of clonazepam + 10 mg of sublinox. I was itchy all over about day 2 or 3, so took one non-drowsy antihistamine. I was fine for a other 2 days and the itch returned so I took one more non-drowsy antihistamine and I've been fine since then. Saw my psychiatrist Monday and he advised me to wean off the clonazepam in 2 weeks from 1 mg to 0.75.

I'm going out on a limb here, but it looks like you're trying to titrate off the meds because your dosages are so low. I am too and have been battling withdrawal symptoms from a cocktail of various anti-anxiety, anti-depressant, and anti-psychotic medications. I'm 72 and my body and brain just can't handle the dosages that were prescribed for me when I was in my 30s. Most of the negative stressors in my life are gone - so I'm able to handle day to day without the meds by changing diet, exercise, etc. But the sleeplessness is debilitating. You don't mention sleeplessness did you have problems with that?
