On my Israel/Egypt trip, I lowered my Seroquel

[SkinnyMe]

due to dry mouth and akathisia issues. I’m not adjusting it back due to the positive effects, (I feel), its having on my piano playing. Wonder of wonders!!

The trouble is, I’m getting psychotic. At the concert the other night, I was paranoid and experiencing telepathy.

And whenever I take my walks, which is very frequently, I always feel like there are serial killers lurking everywhere. Behind every parked car, and bush… And every strange man is a suspect. I feel like serial killers are going to climb my balcony at night. Its not a constant, but frequent enough. I’m ok right now but I’m in the safety of my apartment and its light out.

When I was in Egypt, I was having vivid visual hallucinations.

At this point, I feel like I can handle it. Its uncomfortable but not torturing. Its way worse when paired with anxiety.

Seroquel knocked me unconscious. I hope it works better now for you.

I wouldn’t mess with your meds @SkinnyMe

Get back on the right dosage

@SkinnyMe, things might get worse and you might go downhill. There’s Biotene for dry mouth and being a better piano player doesn’t seem worth a relapse. Right now, you might be able to prevent a full-blown relapse if you went back to taking your medication as prescribed. But if you continue down the road you’re on it might be too late.

My friend at home agrees with you guys, @roxanna @Wave and @77nick77 , so, I’m going to resume my 100 mg Seroquel at bedtime. Thanks.

Glad I could help.
