"this is an update of my use of seroquel. i have been on 800 mg./day for over a year now. my doctor had to keep increasing the dose due to stubborn anxiety/depression. my moods have calmed down a lot, not so many highs and lows. i do still see a therapist which helps with coping with life stresses and behavioral difficulties. i sleep a lot, between 8-10 hours nightly. i still take a small amount of ambien just to help shut down the racing thoughts in my mind. i am having a hard time with my weight. i want to eat the wrong things all the time. i&#039;m 15lbs. heavier now then i was before taking seroquel, but the wellbutrin i was on made me not want to eat ever again so i was way under weight, 125lbs. at 5&quot;8&#039; tall."
