I took Seroquel 300mgs for about a month to bring me out of a psychotic manic episode following the death of my mother. On the drug I also had incredibly deep sleep that was not always restful. I too had dreams that surpassed nightmares and became night terrors (nightmare=falling and waking before hitting the ground; night terror=falling and smashing your brains out). Withdrawal was also a nightmare. As the dosage was reduced to 100mg then 50mg I paradoxically became more sedated. Then I suffered a week of nausea. I finally had several days of diarrhea that seemed to be a withdrawal symptom as well. I'm glad to be off the stuff.
