Schizophrenia
"I&#039;ve been taking seroquel for 17 years . I am diagnosed as schizophrenic but for the last 10 years I have had very little symptoms. After 6 years of being shifted from one med to another all of which made me feel awful, made me put on weight and had no effect on my condition.I was happy to be put on seroquel purely because I felt normal but still had very little effect on my symptoms. I was very reluctant to change meds again so stuck with it . I had my energy back and was getting out exercising and started to loose the weight I&#039;d put on . The schizophrenia was still there but at least I was getting a break from just sitting there with it.  It took a while but after 2-3 years the symptoms started to decrease and just kept on decreasing ."
