These are just theories. I know every med affects everyone differently. However, with that said ...
If you are just taking Seroquel alone (with absolutely no other med), it is hard for me to believe it won't make you very sleepy very fast. I'm not talking about 4-6 weeks, but within 30 minutes. Dosage ranges from 400 to 25 mg, but to me the lower doses were just as strong as the higher ones. I think it is a great drug for insomnia.
Ensam patch. I predict this will become the most popular antidepressant in the next five years and is the start of many strong meds that will be used in the patch form (going straight to the blood stream, rather than through the digestive system with all the MAOI dietary restrictions). Anyways, if you are taking Ensam alone, it is hard for me to believe it won't give you a little boost of energy. This is perfect for those with a lethargic depression, but I'm not so sure it's a good fit for me with my Generalized Anxiety Disorder (gives me too much energy).
Again, I am basing both of these theories on taking the meds alone. When you mix them with other meds, it could have the opposite effect.
