Peter, It is a moderate to heavy dose they tried as a mood stabilizer for me for Bi-polar. All I noticed is it helped me sleep for awhile and then that effect faded away. Did not help depression, etc. Eventually I will be off the med and hopefully just on Lithium.
I do meditate daily and listen to some relaxation CDs. They aren't working as well now as this dose adjustment has me out of sorts.
What I'm trying to find out is how long this adjustment should take before things settle down.
What is strange is I decreased my dose by 50mg a couple months back with no problems at all. That said going from 300mg to 200mg is a big jump. Tonight I will use Lunesta to help me sleep. Getting good sleep makes all the difference as we all know.> John,
> man that is a heavy dose of seroquel without it having the desired effect. Maybe it's not the right med for you. Also, suggest you augment with hypnosis/meditation CDs if you're not already.
