    I have ADHD BPD and autism I find that quetiapine definitely helps me sleep and get through the day i usually get 2 to 4 hours sleep before and keeps my thoughts calm the next day although if it's still becomes a bit overwhelming I do tend to take another one in the day so I can just kind of get through the thoughts my tiredness wears off quickly when i wake up and i need to tske another by 6 pm

    Hey man, I'm prob way too late with this comment to help you. But I went through the exact same thing where I would wake up, but half the time really wanted to go back to sleep. But it was otherwise working well for everything with me. I cut back to 50 mg and take with my regular meds at night and it's perfect. Just like you felt in the early part of this video. I'm more in control when it kicks in late at night but sleep well, and it wears off pretty much before sunrise and I'm able to get up when I want. Not sure you considered that option but it works for me, going on 3 years now

      Yeah I couldn't get on with it in the end, I don't take it anymore at all.

    I’ve just been prescribed this.
    I’m worried I won’t be able to balance work/job I’ve researched the effects and they could seriously cause me to have an Accident especially being a driver and dealing with heavy loads allday.

      Hi mate, this medication did me feel very drowsy in the mornings and took me a while to get going but then I was fine for the day and it never effected my driving but I would express any concerns like that to your doctor and ask to be started on the lowest dose to be safe. I stopped talking it shortly after making this video as I really didn't like the drowsy feeling it gave me every morning.

    i think you should stay on the low dosage. for me i've been on 6.25mg at 9pm for a year now, tried 12.5 a few weeks but not needed. after the first month or two i think my system started flushing it quicker same as you. it still keeps me from waking up at night even though i still get a few less deep sleeps now and then. and i still need to wait for atomoxetine to start working after waking up before eating doesn't take half an hour but i'm absolutely not an early bird. pretty sure that 100mg is an antipsychotic dosage not a sleep aid dosage

      it really didn't work for me, luckily I don't have to take them at all anymore.

      These don't, I was also diagnosed with Bipolar type 2 so I had to take these to be able to take the add medication. I don't take them anymore though.
