I’m not sure if I’m posting this is the correct group. My psychiatrist has me on Xanax. Very sensitive to meds. Tried different anti depressants and not successful. He told me to try Seroquel. I’ve been taking 1/4 of 25 mg in am and 1/4 in pm. But I’m still very anxious. He told me to try 1/2 of 25 mg in am and 1/2 in pm. He also said it’s safe and you could stop it anytime. It’s not addictive. Any thoughts? Thank you.

Hi,
I've been on seroquil for a while now(yrs). Though I do take less than they (Dr's) tell me to bc I too am sensitive to medication&If I did take As much as they want me to I would sleep 24\7. I use it for sleep&anxiety+anger type issues? I Guess you'd say 25mgs during day 2X [tho I prefer either ½ 25or to use my Buspar]&100mgs for bed(tho I prefer less{25mgs}. I've a lot of medical conditions that require meds and many=sleepiness so...it's a difficult balance. My husband had to stop taking them bc anything above 25mgs&he became like nasty. I've NEVER heard of addiction to it except with people who already struggle with addiction issues. Good lUck!
