Who told you to take Seroquel as a sleeping aid? I take it for mental illness reasons.

I've had two psychiatrists prescribe it as a sleep aid. I'm bi-polar. It had no effect when I was in my mid-20s. Many years later, it now knocks me out hard enough that I have a second script (halcyon generic) for when I need to drive in the morning because the seroquel leaves me hazy.

I used to need halcyon to sleep, and a lot more of it. Bi-polar, as I understand it, becomes less-intense post 30s. I also take an antidepressant. I was off that for a few years before 2020 went to fucking shit and I'm still better off having it again.
