Been crying on and off, something I find difficult to do. Saw my GP and I've to get back to him in the morning so he can write a letter or call to ask for an earlier appointment. I was told by the Receptionist at lunch time that Dr. L has cancelled some of her clinics, must be a hell of a lot to be put back for so long and no explanation given. I did have a good chat about all that's happening with me to another OT, J. She said to go ahead with my idea to move 50mg of my daily Seroquel to night time to see if it improves things should I have to wait til October. My nightmares are escalating and I'm dreading going to bed and to sleep every night. The body sensations I'm getting are so real that I'm waking up in a flashback and having panic attacks, I'm so filled with fear. I'm also seeing things, animals mostly, my OT explained why I'm relating to animals and people a lot in my dreams and nightmares. L, my OT is off this week and I've to see her next Wednesday, I'm hoping she can go to the secretaries and try to fit me in to see Dr. L earlier than the date I've been given. I don't think I can cope with much more of this going on most nights now. I've been having all kinds of thoughts from s/h to taking an od. I don't want to go there but all this is wearing me down and upsetting my daytime routine, I'm so tired and pale and people keep telling me that and to get my blood checked but it's the night time upsets that's causing how I'm feeling during the day. Need a hug or two, thanks guys. Love you all. x x x x Life is not the way it's supposed to be... It's the way it is... The way we cope with it, is what makes the difference.

I spoke to another GP this morning and he's sorted my prescription for this Thursday, that's when I pick up all my tablets. I've to call my own GP tomorrow morning, he was off today), to ask him to write a letter to Dr. L to try and see her soon about the nightmares and seeing things during the night and ask what she can do for me with regard to my tablets. Meanwhile I'll try moving 50mg of Seroquel to the night time to see if it'll help. Thanks for you support, means a lot Life is not the way it's supposed to be... It's the way it is...

Part of the furniture Posts: 5936 Fri, 4 Sep, 2009 11:44 PM Deja Vu	Well, so far moving the 50mg of Seroquel to bedtime is helping, things aren't so heightened and intense, just my sleeping pattern is off a bit. No really bad nightmares or seeing things during the night thankfully. Hope this will continue and I can sleep a lot better and manage ok during the daytime. Just hope I've not spoken too soon Life is not the way it's supposed to be... It's the way it is... The way we cope with it, is what makes the difference.

Part of the furniture Posts: 5936 Sat, 12 Sep, 2009 4:56 PM Deja Vu	Thanks Jacs and Panda, lovey to see you around again Panda. I'm now getting really bad dreams and body sensations back again with the extra 50mg of Seroquel at night. My anxiety has gone through the roof at times in the last couple of days, today I felt so sick after breakfast with it I'd to take 2 x 2mg Diazepam to calm me down. I'd to run to the loo as well so I thought that maybe I was just getting sick with something so I went back to bed and slept on and off. Not long up and still in my PJ's. Feeling a bit better than this morning and hope to finish off the ironing. I've not called my GP about a letter as my OT, L has left instructions for the receptionist to fit me in if someone cancels their appointment. He's also off on holiday so the earliest appointment I could get to see him was 25th September!!! I saw OT, L yesterday and I've also to see GP about physical stuff which is going on with me and she'd like me to run it past him and also request the support of a CPN due to OT finishing at the end of this month. L will also be recommending same in her notes. I'd my bloods taken to check my blood sugars and iron for a Diabetic Clinic appointment at the end of this month as well. I've no faith in my Psych anymore, the SHO's give you more time to talk to them and they are willing to try and help you. I'm not holding out on getting a CPN, that way I'll not be disappointed. I really do need something to help me during the daytime as I'm not coping at all. L would like me to be her student's case study and I agreed to help C out anyway I can. I've to ring L on Monday to arrange an appointment to see them both. Thanks for the support guys Life is not the way it's supposed to be... It's the way it is... The way we cope with it, is what makes the difference.

Part of the furniture Posts: 5936 Tue, 22 Sep, 2009 2:48 PM Deja Vu	Thanks Lost and Lainey, still waiting for an early appointment, not expecting anything earlier so I'll not be disappointed. Seeing my GP on Friday about requesting a CPN and sending a letter of support for that. Life is not the way it's supposed to be... It's the way it is...

Part of the furniture Posts: 5702 Sat, 26 Sep, 2009 3:00 PM Moderator	Maggie - I have read over and over again lately on another forum that seroquel causes vivid and strange dreams. Just in case you didn't know that. I was unaware of it. Maybe something to look into to? My Wee Oscar RIP I don't suffer from insanity, I enjoy it Strangers are just friends waiting to happen

Part of the furniture Posts: 5936 Sat, 26 Sep, 2009 6:58 PM Deja Vu	Thanks Jacs, I have been aware of it, think I read it from the leaflet you get with the Seroquel or somewhere else like you. I don't think my nightmares/terrors and bad dreams have much to do with the Seroquel itself, have talked at length to L and SHO's about them, the ones I remember (very few) have the same theme though betrayed in different ways. I know if I'd stop taking the Seroquel things would be a hell of a lot worse for me during the day. My anxiety is already elevated during the daytime now because of moving the 50mg of Seroquel to night time. I will just have to wait until 22nd October and ask questions then. Saw my GP yesterday and he's doing a letter to my Consultant Psychiatrist, Dr. L re CPN support, not sure about OT support. I also got Diazepam as PRN and started HRT too! There can be nasty side effects from the HRT tablet so I'm hoping it'll go well and be of some help to me. Rang Woodstock again on Thursday to see if C had spoken to Dr. L re an earlier appointment and was told by her that Dr. L has cancelled all of next week's clinics!!! There's really no point in calling anymore. Life is not the way it's supposed to be... It's the way it is... The way we cope with it, is what makes the difference.
