Hi Racer, thanks for your caring response. I started Seroquel at 25 mg for a week, then 50 mg for a week, then moved to 75 mg for 3 days, then up to 100 for 1 day, then 150 for three days, then 250 for 1 day, then 300 mg now for 11 days. She kept raising it because of the anxiety and to see if a higher dose would help with not being so sleepy. Apparently the lower dosages are supposed to cause the most somnolence. Shrug. Doesn't seem to be the case for me. Just more anxiety and more knocked out flat sleepiness. Perhaps it really isn't the med for me. I was putting such high hopes on it being 'it' for me. I'm leaning towards returning to the Zyprexa but I'm waiting on her call later this afternoon or early evening after she has done some research on my anxiety reaction. It's so discouraging to feel like this. Clammy palms, crawling out of my skin, difficulty concentrating on anything but scouring the internet for clues as to what is happening. I'm going out of my tree here!
