RusTW: Seroquel CT then reinstated


RusTW

Recommended Posts

Alto I'm at 37.5 seroquel IR. If I'm only taking it at night can I be getting wd during the day .

If I split the dose should I do 6.25. In the morning and 31.25 at night. I still cant nap  maybe this will help?

I'm in window and waves every 2 or 3 days.

I feel the effects for 6-7 hours after night dose.

I moved your post here so as to keep Ripley's thread on-topic about Ripley.

 

Ripley was taking a much higher dose of Seroquel than you. Doctors commonly (and foolishly) prescribe relatively low doses of Seroquel for sleep precisely because it has such a short half-life and presumably doesn't affect people in their waking hours.

 

What is the symptom pattern during the day that you attribute to Seroquel withdrawal? Not being able to nap doesn't count.

This is not medical advice. Discuss any decisions about your medical care with a knowledgeable medical practitioner.

Hi Alto in the day the symptoms are fatigue-fog-anxiety mostly.Did a big cut on zoloft 12.5mg from 50 almost 3 months since cut.

Having day long windows though.Waves have been intense sometimes dropping away around 5pm into windows lasting a day or 2 with low symptoms. 

My wave pattern is every 2 or 3 days then a window.have you heard of this pattern before why so frequent.

I'll probably stick to night dose 37.5

 

Am I on track if I'm getting windows like this.??

That does not sound like breakthrough withdrawal from Seroquel. Some of that fatigue or fog in the morning may in fact be a hangover from Seroquel.

 

Windows are a good sign.

Thanks Rabe to get those windows like that makes these heavy waves easier to get through. It's very strange sometimes because I'll get a wave in the morning and it'll be gone in the afternoon for a day or two.

I feel you. That's why I'm careful with the yogurt, chocolate, fruit spreads, cookies etc.  intake since if I abuse it, oh boy I start having the burps, bloating, and the burning sensation on my stomach.

 

That's interesting sore feet? I've had achy joints, though never sore feet. These meds are lovely, aren't they? I'd love for them to have side effects of suddenly knowing another language. Then, most of us wouldn't fuss about it. :D

Stress just feeds off on the withdrawals and makes it worse. That's what happened to me just working one day in late November. Its was too much and it threw me into this crap storm. 

 

I don't know. They might enjoy it. :D

@Shep I was prescribed Ativan 1mg for emergency situations. I haven't taken any yet

My question to you is if I took it once or twice a month to try to catch up on sleep what are the repercussions of that. Can you destabilize from one dose? Can you also get rebound anxiety as that dose wears off?

I've taken it before a few years back and did okay with it but it scares me. I'm only considering it now because I'm getting battle fatigue and would love to sleep for a full day. I haven't been able to nap since my withdrawals have started.

Manny Yeah probably the work stress causing more intense waves.

The tongue feels burnt for about the last week.not reflux either or hot stuff.

Gi stuff is mild.still some mild cramping. Doing better though in that regard.being cautious though.all basic foods no late eating has helped.
