			<title>What is the falling feeling I get after taking Seroquel?</title>
			<description><![CDATA[

It&#039;s a bit like when you fall off a step and you have that frightened feeling of falling or jumping off a cliff in your sleep. I have taken it now for 7 years and have come down from 700mg daily to 500mg at night. What is it? And do I need to come off it?
