Coming off Seroquel everyday

Just going to take it as needed.
Taking it everyday is not helping me.
It gives me hallucinations at night and the following day I am so darn tired that I accomplish very little during the day.
I plan on calling my doctor next week and telling him.
Besides this I’m craving and eating more junk food.
I’ve gained 5 pounds since being placed on Seroquel 7 days ago.

I was speaking to my therapist and she’s right.
7 days is not long enough to be on a medication yet.
Going to give it another week.
Then I’ll judge

It’s good to give it time. For hunger, eat steamed veggies and lean protein throughout the day to keep full enough to not eat junk that you’ll otherwise crave.
