Taking any anti-psychotic for insomnia is a totally inappropriate use of those drugs. You are risking a bad case of EPS with Seroquel and no psychosis. People with depression are more prone to getting anti-psychotic induced EPS anyway.

There are many other meds which are better for insomnia. Among them are benzos, Remeron, trazadone, Ambien. You can take OTC Valarian root at bedtime. Or calcium/magnesium supplements. Anything but an anti-psychotic. Anti-psychotics for insomnia is CRAZY.
