In fact, my use of seroquel has changed a lot &#8211; now, instead of taking 100mg at a time to sleep, I take it in large doses every several days to activate a seroquel peak.. I&#8217;m not sure what these are yet, although I do know I hallucinate *copious* amounts of text during them.. thousands and thousands of pages of it, each for a few milliseconds. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So, last night I spent several hours testing framebuffers in my mind.
