Seroquel Medication — 

After being on the medication round-a-bout, I finally discovered Seroquel! I've had sleeping problems for the last 7-8 years, tried everything out there. It's complicated, because I am in recovery from addiction and alcoholism, and regardless of what the company claims, most sleep aids ARE addictive. Seroquel is a great med for people in recovery, that need a sleep aid. It doesn't start cravings, it doesn't make you feel "high", and your tolerance level doesn't increase dramatically over time. I've been at the same dose (150mg pm) for over a year now, no increase! It has an added benefit of being a mood stabilizer as well, making it even more helpful for those with BiPolar Disorder (like myself) After 6 months of being on Seroquel, I no longer needed my anti-depressant! Talk to your doctor if you think this med might work for you! The only negative is the price, and there is not a generic yet.
