Misc Seroquel Overdose: How Bad?

I take 900mg Seroquel each night and have done for years after trying Zyprexa. Does fuck all even with 5mg Ativan. Horses for courses I guess..............
 
Well I'm calling bullshit on this because you have no idea the mg of the pills you took the largest they make are 400mg there by being impossible to acheive a total dosage of 3.5 grams end of story. The people who were with you who "knew" what they were talking about didn't have any clue and so consequently neither do you. On top of this though I'm not positive for every strength of seroquel but most tell the number of mgs per tablet right on the front. You can't have taken between 9-12 tablets which is what you said and know it was a certain dose. The entire story is just filled with too many problems for it to be anywhere close to legitimate. Cheers to you on the benadryl though I'm also doubting the validity of that but without any proof I'll give it to you for benefit of the doubt.

They make 100mg pills.... I guess math wasn't your strong subject.
 
my girlfriend is in the hospital and shes going thru some bad heroin w/ds and yesterday i saw her for like a minute (shes on a unit and i got there right as they were going downstairs) and shes been taking 800-1200+ mg seroquel a day given to her by a dr and she says to me she STILL doesnt sleep. i dont get how thats possible and didnt believe her at all til i saw her yesterday and she looked like she got hit by a bus i swear. she looked run down as anything and all dark around the eyes and lost some weight. the drs give her nothing for her w/ds or anxiety. they just keep boostin her with seroquel. i just dont get how you can take that much seroquel and not sleep? i know id be on my ass after 800mg of that lol

They also make 25, 50, 200, 300, and then 400 but he didn't say he ate a mix of different ones or anything he said 9-12 of the largest ones now I think we can both see how rediculous this entire story is and yes via math none of the tablet sizes multiplied by the numbers 9,10,11, or 12 equal 3.5 grams so thanks for your concern but kindly stfu.
 
Iam 24 6"4 250......I ODed on 1500-2000mg of Seroquel...........I was out for 2 days and to this day i have uncontrollable head tweeks. snorting 3.5GRAMS seems unplausible especially since you wer 13 and dood no 13yr old looks 20. 14-15 i was passing for 18 to score ciggs but my beer was still scored from a friendly neighborhood drunk hehe
 
seroquel is an anti-psychotic...it is meant to shut your brain down for a reboot. I take 300mg XR tabs once a day for my bipolar disorder. I can tolerate the extended release much better than instant release. I have heard of people using it as a recreational drug although I cannot even begin to imagine why. It is not something to fuck around with.
 
Im kind of confused..if you said you just.."chilled out" it doesnt sound like you overdosed??

i've never OD'D off of seroquel, but i am perscribed to it. i take 300mgs of XR 2x a day an 800mgs of regular seroquel at night. Im confused on how much you actually snorted?

Also, I didn't even know people abused it besides to knock themselves out after a speed binge. I personally have severe bipolar 1 and I don't get the "knock out" from it at all. On 800mgs at night, I still have problems sleeping.

Personally, if I was you..I'd go see a doctor. Good luck.
 
Oh okay..um..when you were 13 that much seroquel did not kill you/put you in the hospital? I don't mean to be rude at all, but that sounds hard to believe. I don't mean to sound like a bitch..this is just coming from someone who has been on seroquel for almost 5 years now..and I just can't see a 13 year old taking that much and being fine the next day enough to go to school.

I still think the 1600mg benadryl is very plausible. And 3.5 grams of seroquel, possible. I'm on antipsychotic therapy, and having gone through seroquel, it's not as much of a beast as people say.

regardless, killing this thread was probably a good response. the reckless drug abuse is a -symptom- of his psychosis, not the cause. "real life advice" is the next step.

It's not a beast to you because you probably actually NEEDED it. Someone who doesnt need it, it will knock you the fuck out.
 
i used to be on 1000mg/day. im 5'2" and 100-110 lbs. i take it to keep myself sane. when you feel seroquel (when it doesnt knock you out right away) it is not pleasant. it definately causes hallucinations, paranoia, panick. i really experience these symptoms when i take it to come down off a speed binge. it is hell and i believe it is related to the high dose. taking my meds normally, i only feel these effects occasionally - i have a high tolenace for this meds and their effects. i can function on 300mg during the day. i did have an experience where i od'd on seroquel - i was in a really dark place and i took every pill i had. the doctors were surprised that i didnt have brain damage or that i wasnt brain dead. i have a lot messed up with my memory and thinking and stuff. this is the result of many things but the seroquel didnt help matters. it is an ugly drug with no recreational value. i find it wierd and im a bit skeptical when i hear that people snort seroquel. that is a lot of powder that probably burns like hell and contains a ton of fillers. it doesnt seem like snorting would be a valid roa. who knows, it seems like people will crush up anything and suck it up their nose. (no offence to op)

I have tried 300mg of seroquel taken orally. Once. It knocked my dick in the dirt and I slept for almost 18 hours. I really hope he meant 3.5mg and not 3.5g(3500mg). I would say 3500mg is enough to cause some permanent damage.

yeah there is no way to overdose on 3.5mg of Seroquel. I've actually overdosed really bad on seroquel and I was prescribed to the big white 300mg ones, not too sure the amount, 90 maybe. In my worst of times I took the whole bottle (I don't really think that needs any explanation :\ ). But I was rushed to the ER and even if you ate all the seroquel you wanted your stomach would not digest it. You're most likely to get really sick and throw a lot of it up (as I did) and sleep for a good day or two.

Perhaps you didn't read my post correctly. That, or I am not really sure why you quoted my reply.
 
Read up on neuroplasicity.

Likely some of the changes of structure/function will never return to baseline unless you abstain for a significant period . Talking years. Exercise and look into nootropics. Lion's Mane mushroom has been shown to stimulate nerve growth factor. Certain parts of the brain can regenerate neurons (hypocampus, olfactory centre, and quite possibly others). This is off the top of my head. You'll have to research yourself as I'm way to lazy to look for the references.

Even then there's no gaurantee.

People learn to adapt.
 
How long ago did all this happen and what long-term effects do you believe it's caused? What other drugs have you used since then?

Seroquel can have some pretty nasty - and even fatal - side effects for some people but I'm curious about why you're so certain that its the Seroquel and nothing else which has caused your "permanent mental effects" and not the amphetamines or other drugs? For that matter, why do you think it's drugs of any kind which have caused your mental health issues?

There are plenty of mental health disorders which emerge during adolescence and early adulthood whether or not drugs have been taken during that time. Your best course might be to get your mental health assessed by a professional instead of trying to diagnose your issues and their cause yourself.

For what it's worth, you can get a "chill" feeling from Seroquel. I get it for a few days when my dose is being stepped up. But I'd be very surprised if it happened at such an heroic dose in someone who had no tolerance. It's absolutely possible that you have a distorted memory of the event though - Seroquel dreams are notorious for being vivid and sometimes they're extremely difficult to distinguish from reality.
 
I have taken 150mg of Seroquel and forced myself to stay awake through the drowsiness. If you can stay awake, it does get you high. I had intense euphoria and was really giggly and goofy...but also very delusional. I really have no tolerance for any "drowsy" medications. I also call bullshit on this story, my brother overdosed and died on 2000mgs and he was 35 and built like a brick wall. Its not funny to lie. Grow up.
