I was put on Seroquel because at the time I was getting on paxil and the side effects were scary, wound up in an emergency room and eventually a psych ward. It was prescribed for sleep, 50mg, and I kept increasing the dose. Eventually the side effects became too much.

It was my choice to come off of it, the doctor I'm seeing now expressed some concerns but didn't offer to switch. Things are slowly getting better and I'm in a safe place.

Are you on paxil now. I have been suffering severe anxiety since december and cant take ssris because i get too sick. . Im glad you are fei g better. I live in canada so mental health care is not good
.

Thanks! Its 3:30am right now, went to bed early but woke up a few hours ago and can't get back to sleep. Some shaking and nausea, but I'm not vomiting. Today was mostly ok, went to the park to exercise for two hours and had an appetite. It's been rough .

Yes paxil 10mg.

Also forgot to mention: I wasn't switched to another atypical antipsychotic because I don't have bipolar or schizophrenia. It was improperly prescribed off label for sleep.

Well glad you are doi g a bit better

See if you can get Seroquel in liquid form. I think it’s available. You can taper very slowly using the liquid.

May I ask you to be more specific about what combinations and amounts of these supplements you have used and for what? Your response was great but a bit overwhelming and confusing to follow, for me at least. Also, I take very many meds and have to be careful, but I am always interested in new solutions, esp natural. I am unable to use honey due to Diabetes; I have tried in small portions.

These last two days were feeling better but today it all crashed. Nausea, vomiting, panic attacks. I can't sleep. Close my eyes and feel a panic attack then get up and suffer. Normally I'd wake up four hours later then panic and get sick immediately. The rest of the day would be a little better, at times feeling normal. But today was bad, I felt ok for about five hours total.

No sleep last night, delerius. Sweating and panic and vomiting all night. This is the way it was a while ago but the past few days were mostly normal except for night. No idea why it ended up back at square one yesterday! I normally take a two walk in the park in the morning. Couldn't do it today.

So I took a 0.5 of Klonopin. Resisted up until now, but it's clear that I need it. I think it's taking the edge off.

Please stop torturing yourself - the motto - is Go LOW and Go SLOW - you're coming off too quick. Get a reasonable detox schedule and start adding in good supports whole foods, supplements, information and exercise.
