I can see how someone would grow dependent on the sedative qualities of seroquel. I take 300mg and I have gotten to the point where it will cause me to fall asleep in the evening, but have no grogginess in the daytime. I actually LIKE the antihistamine, because I havent had any problems with allergies or such this year. yay!!
another reason why seroquel might be abused is because it makes the little ruminative thoughts go away. I can easily imagine how someone who is incarcerated and socially isolated might develop an inner life of the mind that includes ruminative and intrusive thoughts. If one is in solitary confinement or ostracized for too long, one will likely show signs of mental illlness, including psychotic symptoms. Seroquel might be a way that such a person maintains a feeling of sanity in an insane world.
or maybe they just want to feel zoned out stoned out. mood stabilized?
