In reply to Seroquel a COMATOSE-like med...pls help, posted by jay on April 14, 2005, at 17:50:27
Yeah, I experience the exact same things when I take Seroquel for sleep; I'd almost rather not go to bed at all than to sleep so miserably.
Although, I can see how napping durring the day could cause the same things.Just some tips: I find that exercizing about an hour before bed (60minutes on treadmill) effectively wears me out, makes me sleep like a baby.
Hot showers seem to help too. and warm milk! really big feasts before bed always exhaust me. but that probably isnt a smart thing to for very long. Usually we just have to get ourselves into a good-sleeping pattern for a few days, and we're fine. One night of poor sleep seems to screw everything up, I sleep durring the next afternoon and can't fall asleep the next night, its a self perpetuating cycle.Maybe you could ask your doctor about taking ambien- or some other sleep aid, for a week or so, to get you into a good pattern.
hope this helps a bit!
