| Male, 26 I have been taking seroquel for about a month. I am up to 600mg a night. It helps me sleep, makes me a little twitchy, I'm not really noticing any positive mental effects yet. I'll give it another month for that. It's hard to drink alcohol with the drug because it makes me sleep for a day when I do so. I've missed a couple days of work so far due to the fact of being so sleepy in the morning. I'm also on 75mg a day of Effexor, but again, I'm not really noticing any positive mental effects. I do eat a lot more and have gained 10 lbs. I also get xerostomia (dry mouth) very badly to the point that my teeth hurt. I hope it my meds begin working on my brain soon instead of just my body. |
