I'm a post menopausal woman who has schizophrenia, depression, anxiety. I was diagnosed in 1995. I've been on haliperidol and procycladine, rispiridol and I'm now on quetiapine and propananol.

Hi been on it for about 15 years now. I'm on 600mg xl the extended release as the normal one gave me really bad restless legs. I don't get that very often now. I used to sleep a lot on it especially at first. I sleep about 12 hours at night now and if I get up early I'm really groggy still. I gained lot of weight that's really hard to shift. How is it effecting you?
