> LinkadgeIn the first few weeks of my parnate experience I experienced severe insomnia. My p-doc wrote a script for seroquel 50mg for sleep. I used it for two days and while it did help me sleep it negated all the positive effects of the parnate and plunged me back into a deep depression. Needless to say I d/c the seroquel.
