anyone here take seroquel?
I have been taking seroquel for 4 years. 300 mg at bedtime. I am addicted to it and have been for about 2 years. I never abuse it, I take one daily like my dr perscribed. But if I don't take it I get extremely sick, even if I just miss 1 dose my body starts withdrawing. I shake, throw up, hot/cold sweats, and my body feels like I have the worst flu. Also if I don't take it I can't sleep. Not even for a hour. It's so bad I have to cancel my day if I forget or run out.
I am ttc baby #3 but I'm afraid seroquel is throwing my body off.
My dr said it's safe to take while pregnant (my best friend was on it her whole pregnancy and her baby is perfect)
Personally I stop taking all medication when I find out I'm pregnant.
With both my kids I stopped it and had no problem bc my body's hormones are different when I'm pregnant and it actually evens out the bipolar and I don't want to take any medication while pregnant unless I have to.
I don't want to go off of it yet bc I'm not pregnant but I'm worried it's causing me to not get pregnant.
Has anyone taken seroquel? What was ur experience? Did it effect u getting pregnant ? Did u take it while pregnant ?
Did u get addicted to it?
------ I have bipolar, ptsd, anxiety and panic disorder from my childhood. I have gone through 18 years of therapy to get where I am today. So please don't say go to therapy or you shouldn't have kids bc you have bipolar . Nothing mean please
Thank you
