I noticed this possibility of tremors mentioned in this PDF as well. In that link you shared, people are talking about vivid, lifelike dreams. I actually went through a phase for about a week where that was happening to me. Anyway, I’ve been taking Paxil at 37.5 mg every morning for two months now, and over the last week, I feel like it’s finally hitting its stride. (Meaning my anxiety is down and I actually have some motivation to get things done). But, just as importantly, I’ve been dealing with some real muscle weakness over the last few days, which is just another side effect to deal with.

I couldn't disagree more! When you uncover those clear cause-and-effect links, you actually strengthen the healing process. Addressing the immediate consequences is the most vital first step—it’s what gets a person stabilized enough to even move forward.
If you really want my two cents, I’ll give it to you. I’m trying to soak up every last bit of sunshine while I can. Honestly, I’m a little worried that once winter hits, I might spiral into some sort of total isolation phase—I just need to make sure I get out and see people while there's still light left.
Kevin Bailey2 said:How am I getting prescribed Seroquel for borderline personality disorder?
In cases of BPD, doctors often turn to antipsychotics to act as mood stabilizers or even low-dose anxiolytics. Speaking from my own experience with Quetiapine, it really does lock your mood into one steady spot—though it comes with that heavy sense of derealization and emotional numbness... 🙂🙂 🙂🙂
... but then again, I suppose they prescribe it just to make sure patients don't end up hanging themselves...🤷
Hmm, I highly doubt this Saturday is going to get any warmer than it is right now. We’ll probably just end up scouting out a local pub with a decent heater. Or, you know, just warm ourselves up with a spicy buffalo wing or two... we'll see. I really wish we could at least squeeze one more sunny Saturday out of this season before a blizzard decides to roll in and take over.
It’s such a shame she said she couldn't make it 😛 🙂 Well, if you and Lois are planning on playing some badminton, you really ought to take advantage of this beautiful weather while you can.

Next time, we’ll pick a date that works better for the majority. We still have plenty of ground to cover regarding aliens, the meaning of life, the cosmos, and all that good stuff. 😂
Michael Hill2 said:For the first two weeks? Yeah, absolutely. After that, you kind of adjust. Personally, it takes me about half an hour every morning just to actually function, but once I'm up, I'm a total goody two-shoes.😉
So, basically, does the drowsiness just never go away?
hollowcrane95 said:How can you say they aren't the same, when isn't Quetiapine actually just the active ingredient in Seroquel? I'm totally lost here.
Comparing Sanval to Seroquel, or any other antipsychotic, is a bit like comparing a paper airplane to a Kanader...
🤣
I don't think so. Quetiapine is actually the active ingredient in Q-pin. 🤷
hollowcrane95 said:Is anyone else completely free from those morning-after side effects from Quetiapine? I feel like I’m walking around in a total fog for half the day.
hollowcrane95 said:Well, I went ahead and asked, so here we are. 🤷 I take something for sleep too, but I still wake up feeling completely hungover and totally uncoordinated in the morning...
One time I took 25mg. Within thirty minutes, I was absolutely floored. And yeah, I dealt with those exact same side effects you mentioned. It took me half the day just to feel human again. For me, that dose works best for anxiety if I take it during the day, though thankfully I've never taken it then because I would've passed out at my desk.
quietwalker5 said:When are you switching to 75? Is the insomnia wearing you down? Are you managing to get any sleep, and are the dreams vivid?
I’m still on the fence about whether I should bump my dose up to 75; I guess we’ll just have to see how things play out. It takes me a good while to actually feel human in the morning, especially on those days when sleep just isn't happening. My rest has been pretty fragmented lately—I usually don't drift off until around 1:00 AM. To make matters worse, my dreams were incredibly intense last night. I had way more of them than usual, and honestly, they left me feeling completely wiped out.
I can't quite make sense of that last bit—it looks like a typo or some shorthand I'm not familiar with. Could you clarify what you meant? I want to make sure I'm following you! kaže: Keep a close eye on how things are going. If that insomnia starts getting any worse, you’re probably going to have to switch up your medication, unfortunately.😢
