I've been on 200 mg of seroquel for about 2 years.. and YES..about 20 minutes after I take the med, I have to eat.. and eat.. and eat. The problem is.. one of the side affects of the med is that I have trouble swallowing. These two "side affects" are part of the reason I stopped the med... I did this a week and a half ago.. I've never felt so bad in my life. Vertigo.. itching.. irritable. I'll never go back on it... I dont care if I dont sleep for weeks. I've been treated for BPMD for 10 years... I've been on scores of meds... experienced withdrawals from several different types.. (anti depressents... anti-anxiety... mood stabilizers.. etc.) and I've NEVER felt this bad when I've stopped anything before. If anyone has any ideas on how to deal with these withdrawal symptoms, I'd be GLAD to hear your advice. Yes.. it's been a week + and I STILL feel like my head is reeling. I also stopped effexor (150 mg)... so I'm not completely sure that all the symptoms are from the seroquel alone. All I DO know .. without a doubt.. is that I'd not recommend this med for anyone. I hate it.. hated the way it made me a zombie.. hated the way it made me a slave to it. I like sleeping.. but I also like waking up as myself and not a lifeless puppet. There's no quality of life in that.. at least not for me.
