Are you taking and referring to Zyprexa or Seroquel? I've taken both and found Seroquel (even at a very low dose) to be far more sedating than Zyprexa in terms of Seroquel making me woozy and drowsy quite soon after taking it, whereas Zyprexa was a more subtle type thing. Never put me to sleep the way Seroquel did.
Also, you mentioned "brain-fog" symptoms and said they were apparently due to overactivty in certain (dopamine?) circuits, "neural noise" -- what do you mean by "brain fog"?
I think of brain fog as being cloudy-minded, in a haze, unable to think clearly or focus, feeling kind of spacey and out-of-it, but I'm not sure anymore since you associate "brain fog" with OVERACTIVITY of dopamine, which I thought was a stimulating thing, so maybe "brain-fog" is something stimulating? Hmmmmm ... Could you describe your brain fog a bit? Thanks!
