I realize now that Im not a drug addict, but schizophrenic and that taking antipshycotics is not the same as being a drug addict. So here Im back on the Seroquel, 100 mg.

I hope that you feel better. I know sometimes AP is necessary.

Thank you everybody. Im just so sad to realize that I have a chronic illness and that I will probably need Seroquel like for ever.
But otherwise Im self-medicating with alcohol and sex.

Yeah it’s good you came to terms and understand that most of us will need to take AP for life
It is what it is. It is much better than relapsing
As for sex that’s fine
But try to limit alcohol
I was doing the same thing…but AP and alcohol mixing doesn’t really agree with eachother
I was doing it too and the next day , and sometimes 2 I’d feel sick, hungover, anxious etc

I had a hellacious hangover this morning, but that has largely subsided. I think it is very damaging to my body to combine psychotropic drugs and alcohol.

It is
Very not good a mix
I went from drinking 2-3 times a week to maybe once every 4 months now
I’m expecting to Sunday night lol will try not to do too much
I remind myself of how shitty it gets the next 24-48 hours
oh I am so relieved to hear you’re back on 100 mg…thank goodness you realized that. happy for you. @anon55055794
