I would talk to your: prescribing doctor before stopping the seroquel (quetiapine). The provider can help to find alternatives to this medication. In the meantime - how is your sleep hygiene? Sleep Hygiene is Key.Retire & rise same time each day. Keep bedroom dark & cool & use only for sex & sleep. Turn off tv. No naps. Exercise regularly but not in late evening. No caffeine for 6 hrs & no alcohol or tobacco w/i 2 hrs of sleep.
