Yep. After being on various prescribed drugs over the years i've settled on one. 25mg of Quetiapine at night when needed to knock myself out. Not being able to get to sleep - when i'm actually tired - and my brain spinning and running loops is not good for me.

Out of curiosity (not judging), is your doc okay with that and did they prescribe it that way? I've never heard of quetiapine being prescribed on an as-needed basis.
Yeah the prescription is PRN which means as needed i think. As well as helping me sleep it helps a bit taking the edge off some other issues. I've got a good relationship with my doc and he trusts my input. I've got good drug 'insight' apparently.
