Noisy when sleeping on Quetiapine

Hi Shunka, sorry to hear of your partner's symptoms to Quetiapine & your lack of sleep!

I take 200mg Quetiapine at night & have the same grunting thing happen, i don't have a partner though.

Blimey! That sounds like a really difficult one. I live alone so I don't know if I grunt.

Actually, if we put our mind to it, we can in fact learn to sleep through anything. For example, I once lived in a flat next to a busy train line. First night after Imoved in I regretted taking the flat because every 20 minutes or so, a train would rumble past, making one hell of a noise, and 4am was the worst! But after 2 weeks of disturbed sleep. I got so exhausted I slept through in spite of the noise, and from then on, I never heard the trains again. A fiend of mine bought a house close Heathrow, and also had the same experience.

When I was 30, my husband began to snore, and within a few years he was snoring so loud the windows rattled. I had been quietly sneaking out of bed on nights that he snored and sleeping on the sofa, but when it got to be every night, and MUCH worse, I didn't want to always be on the sofa away from him, so I snuggled up to him and told myself to ignore the snore. Same thing happened. After a few weeks I got accustomed and from then on I never heard him snore again (unless I worked late into the night and he went to sleep before me, LOL). Still, I snuggled up and ignored the snoring and slept like a baby.

It could possibly be sleep apnea. I have read that Seroquel is bad for causing sleep apnea. Best of luck!

Thanks everyone for your replies. I'm trying out different ear plugs. I've found the silicon ones work best for me for anyone going through a similar problem!
