"i&#039;ve been on seroquel for a couple months and i&#039;m surprised at how good it works and how i have minimal side effects. i take 100mg-300mg at night and before my naps, just depending on how tired i already am without the medicine. like most people, if you don&#039;t get ample sleep (8-10 hours), you usually wake up feeling tired &amp; groggy. it usually wears off within a couple hours though. i noticed when i take it my eyes become super red like i just finished smoking weed. i have experienced a little chest pain in my lower rib cage but it&#039;s tolerable. other than that, i sleep like a baby; i have the vivid dreams which in my opinion is neither negative or positive. but it&#039;s helped in stabilizing my mood &amp; controlling my swings."
