Hello,
I am a 31yr old male 6'2 180lbs. I have been on seroquel for 5 months only 2.7mg I take a 25mg tab and cut it into quarters from there I crush the quarters into powder then divide the powder in half and the a little bit off that half. I am weaning down to around 1.5mg and expirencing bad withdrawls symptoms. I lost my job due to the foggy brain i had while on the medication. I am on no other medications.
My question is how bad will the withdrawl symptoms be and how long will they last?
Also,if i switch to low dose celexa will I still experience withdrawl from seroquel?
You should go see you're doctor.
I did, they said I won't experience any side effects.
I guess I'm just surprised that such a small amount of Seroquel would cause you such problems!?! Could it be something else, perhaps?
I'm not saying that I know anything about medication, but I'm finding it hard to believe that 2.7 mg of Seroquel would course you withdrawal problems. Just sayin. I'm no doctor!
For a small amount you shouldn’t experience any withdrawal from it. But I know everyone is different I agree with others is talk to ur doctor if we’re prescribed it don’t lean off till ur doctor says so they will lower ur doses if u do it ur self you can get wit drawl but low amount I don’t see how you would get withdrawal I’m on 125mg if I stopped I’ll go through it. But again talk to ur doctor maybe seroquel isn’t for you
Did talk to my doc they perscribed me to propornaol beta blocker meds to come off.
Also I will start the detox thrs and keep you ask updated
I'm down to a half miligram been going through hell. Cold turkeying as of today; I will keep everyone updated on how out goes.
Maybe you should talk to someone?!?
I don't mean about the meds, either!
That's what I'm doing... I'm talking to you guys.
These are all questions you should be asking a psychiatrist, not a bunch of people who take the meds that are prescribed by the psychiatrist!
I don't understand what you don't understand about this!
I did the psych was retarted as hell do are the doctors. They said it's on my head yet I can't sleep lost weight ahs throwing up. The doctors and psychs cab suck a dck.
I am off the Seroquel. My decision to NOT listen to the doctor and take 50mg was the best decision ive ever made. When taking ssris or anti-psychs micro dose them. I got on blood pressure meds and its day 9 off Seroquel. Ringing in my ears a little agitation but I feel 99% better. From now on I will never seek medical help when emotionally crazy I will just workout.
How are you feeling now? I'm taking 100mg of seroquel and want to get of this crap.
Feeling much better, clear head no irritability, fatigue is down 80%. You just have to make it the first 4 days after that its easy. If I were you I would cold turkey for 2 days then start back on 50mg stay there for a month cut meds for 48 hrs start back on 25mg. If you can make it to 12.5 mg you're basically off. Get blood pressure meds from your doctor and promethazine. I used these on top of marijuana and it was easy as pie to come off. I lost my job due to seroquel so I had to cold turkey it. You'll see horror stories about coming off don't be scared you'll do it. I'm here if you need help in anyway.
