I am already feeling sleepy while on 5mg seroquel (quetiapine) , not psychologically ,am i normal ? any possible reason as i know lowest dose is 25mg?

Sleepy: You are sleepy at 5 mg Seroquel (quetiapine). This is certainly possible. As you know, it is an antipsychotic which is sometimes used for other reasons, including sleep, for someone who is not psychotic. How did you get a fifth of a pill?
