I have bee coming off 1200 mgs of seroquel for the last year. I am finally down to 25 mgs and its really feeling bad. Not sleeping, itchy skin, anxiety, depression, nausea, shaking and sweating. From what I have been told this is all part of the withdrawal of such a powerful med. I can no longer take phys meds so I would love to hear if anyone has gone through this….
Thanks,

I was on 600mg of seroquel a long time ago. It did take a while for me to get off of it. My sleeping clock was all messed up due to it. Along with not being able to sleep at all some nights. Interesting I thought that the highest dose that someone could prescribe of seroquel was 800mg.
