I've used seroquel for 6 years and I really like it. It calms my mind and helps me sleep. But, I did gain a TON of weight.
It's a great drug, but just keep exercising and eating right.

I was prescribed this .... (it's main side effect is Diabetes).
The first time I took it, it put me in a state of awe, I could function correctly, and I stopped having disturbing thoughts. You will sleep like a baby, and throughout the day you will feel amazing. Except, I started abusing seroquel to the point that I was taking 8 times what I was prescribed because it was sooo good. So I stopped.
Coupled with the abuse of seroquel and the main side effect of Diabetes ... (and the fact that Diabetes runs in my family)... I got off of it for good.

I love Seroquel, actually. It allows me to sleep, eliminated racing thoughts, irritability, and impusivity. I've been taking it for 7 years, and have no side effects. I'd say it's safe.
