My mom and I started to think (scary thought I know) but my morning pills don't effect me nearly as bad as my nightly ones. And the only difference is I take my seroquel at night. My speech gets slurred, I "zone". Is this normal?

I've been on it for 3 months and it's just now happening. I also have balance problems at night. It's weird

I just got off of seroquel. i felt awful. i was confused all the time, very sedated, i slurred my speech and "zoned" too. and i was only up to 50 mg a day. the doctor wanted me to eventually take 2 200 mg a day.

I take Seroquel to sleep at night, 300mg. I used to take it during the day a few yrs ago and I zoned out and would forget things like where I was or where I was going. My balance was affected too. I fell several times. It doesn't bother me now that I'm taking it at night.

Today my dr decided to take me off it but I have to go slow other wise there might be bad side effects, pretty sure the side effects can't be worse than taking it.

I just started this medication and I'm so sleepy it's tough just when I start to sober up from this pill then its time to take another. I did decide to start taking it at night and wow I sleep better than ever and I have interesting dreams to go along with it.

I've been taking it for about a month. last night I threw up in my sleep and woke up choking. It was awful.. I personally hate Seroquel..

When I first started taking the Seroquel, I always take it at night, i sounded like I was drunk. I was slurring bad and then I would pass out. I would wake up and be fine. It happens in the beggining but it does stop.
