Suggest Remedy For Panic Attacks And Anxiety To Sleep At Night While On Seroquel

Hello I m on seroquel 300 not xr and I m deathly afraid to sleep at night because it is super sedating and when I take it at night no matter how tired I am it makes my body so exhausted that it almost paralyzes me and makes it so I have to try really hard to move . I try falling asleep at the same time but every time I open my eyes I get extreme waves of anxiety and adrenaline rushes throughout my whole body which are unbearable and I have a heart pounding that starts in my head but at the same time It makes me so exhausted I can t really move and all I can do is force my eyes shut as much as possible without opening them until it knocks me out . I don t know how to explain the feeling but it makes me terrified to sleep at night . Before I was on seroquel 300 xr and this never happened to me when I took it . I had no problems like this but I can t take it anymore . If I don t take it however the next day I feel sick all day and either migraines or headaches but I can t do it anymore and I don t know what to do . I m avoiding sleep at all costs and not taking it but I have to eventually but I m so scared to take it I want to cry and have a panic attack just thinking about it . Please help me . Please .

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

As there is much sedating effects of Seroquel, I would recommend alternative with best efficacy and least side effects. Meltonin is a natural neuronal transmitter used in variety of clinical conditions with insomnia disorders. An intake of Melatonin tablet at night helps immensely to restore the previously disturbed sleep cycle. Kindly discuss the same with your treating doc during next scheduled visit.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
