Sleep hours

Hi, I have been put on seroquel so I can sleep because I had insomnia and only slept 6h a day, I also had lots of energy…Now things have changed and I sleep more or less 15h a day at least until now might sleep more, also think it’s because I am really depressed. Has did this happened to any of you?

can’t say because i’ve only been on seroquel for less than a week maybe?
it really helps with sleeping but if sleeping too much is a problem, then work with your psychiatrist with this.
could be many things
negative symptoms, depression, meds, environmental, bad sleeping habits, etc.

@far_cry0 takes it for sleep. He might have some advice.

Olanzapine makes me sleep like 12 hours a night.

I am also really depressed when I’m awake and usually with suicide thoughts. I think about suicide everyday since a weeks ago.

I take 200mg Amisulpride +25mg Seroquel daily. I have been on this combo for nearly 5 years. I usually took Amisulpride in the morning and took Seroquel before bed. The Seroquel made me sleep better and longer. In the first 3 and half years I slept 9-10 hours each night, but since the begining of last year I slept less and less. This year I usually slept 7 hours each night. Now I get up much earlier. I did not change anything to my med combo. I can’t explain why.

I got severe depression from the combo of Risperidol 3mg and Seroquel 100mg. This happened about 10 years ago.
