My opinion:

ANY adverse event you experienced as a side effect of taking Seroquel should be sent to the committee. Tell your story! I had horrific withdrawals, gained weight, and couldn't operate a vehicle after the drug knocked me out for 14 hours, I could barely function for the brain fog. That wasn't the XR(extended release) version up for approval for depression and anxiety!
