I was doing really well for a while. I was on my Zoloft and Ativan and Klonopin when needed. My reg. Dr wanted to send me to a high risk OB about the meds and she sent me to a pshychaitrist to talk about the meds. At that point I was taking Zoloft 100mg and Klonopin 1/2mg when needed and sometimes went days without it. Her boss said to wean me off the klonopin up my Zoloft and take Ativan only when needed or keep me on klonopin at a scheduled dose to prevent the attacks. She decided to totally take me off the klonopin and just give me 10 Ativan for a month. I went back bc that wasnt working and my attacks started up daily again so she gave me Serequel and didnt fill the Ativan or Klonopin. I took a 1/2 of a 1/2 of Serequel and was a zombie and couldnt do anything but sleep. I tried it for 3 days and was in bed all 3 days. I went back to her again and she said to keep up the Serequel. I told her I couldnt function and have a 4 year old to take care of but she didnt listen to me. She raised my Zoloft from 150mg to 250mg. Thank god I have some extra Klonopins or else I wouldnt be getting through the nights. I have an appt with a reg DR on monday to talk about all this. I dont know whats going on but would like to go back to what was working esp since the high risk OB said that was fine. Has anyone had this happen? I am just so stressed that the panic attacks are nightly again

Hi sweetie, I feel for you! Seroquel is known to do that to a lot of people. JMHO, I would try to stick with only one benzo. Klonopin or Ativan. I have heard Zoloft has done wonders for many people. Maybe you will get used to the Seroquel, IMHO again, taking the Seroquel is much better than taking 2 benzos. I can hear your frustration - pm me anytime, I wish there were more I could do, I really know what you're going through.
Hang in there, and try some praying, some calm, deep breathing, something that makes you laugh and your heart lighter....
Please let us know how your doc appt goes ok?

Thanks so much. I cant believe after all this its coming back. I am so scared and hate this. I agree I hope they will give me one benzo either back to a scheduled dose to prevent them or when needed. I feel so helpless when I am having an attack and nothing helps and it even takes the medicine so long to work
