I'm now on my second day of seroquel and I am very VERY relaxed.  I had that "hungover" and very  hard to wake up this morning, but it is Saturday.  I'm liking it so far.  I was prescribed to take 25mg 3 times a day.  Ill keep you posted and good luck.

iread this about seroquel,

" it works by diminishing the action of dopamine and serotonin"

http://www.healthsquare.com/newrx/ser1402.htm

which is weird because i thought depression / anxiety was caused by a lack of them?

im very confused about how and why, but i seem to be much calmer and happier on low doeses of seroquel and prozac then i was a week ago?

im not going to question it for now, ill keep taking them, in low doeses, for a month or 2 then taper off and see how i do, if the depression / anxiety returns ill take more.

thats my plan.
