Trazedone is a good suggestion, thank you.
I'm on 100mg Seroquel. I'm trying to reduce by splitting one pill and taking 3 pills plus that half pill (I take four 25mg pills/day). Unfortunately I can notice an increase in my depression and anxiety just from this small reduction. Also, Seroquel doesn't split cleanly..

It is a mild tri-cyclic antidepressant but doesn't carry risks like causing Diabetes and weight gain like Seroquel does. I may try this. As far as getting off the Seroquel, tapering off extremely slowly seems to be the only way I've read online to get off of it. I mean SUPER slowly! What are your main side effects that distress you when you have tried to get off of it in the past?
