Slow release will allow you to absorb exactly the same amount as before - u have been on 100 a day and still will be. The 50 will be released twice as slow as the quick release - I am sure you will be fine... x
Anxiety is the dizziness of freedom; I try not to worry about the future -- so I take each day just one anxiety attack at a time.

I also take seroquel (quitiapine). 200mg morning, 200mg afternoon and 400mg at night. I take the regular seroquel, but would be interested in taking the slow release ones as it is a pain having them (and other meds) all the time.
Like loulabella said, you will still be getting the same amount of medication but relased over a prolonged period. Don't be afraid to take it, you will be fine.
I would be interested to hear how you get on.
Good luck xxx

Good on you bomberbeamish!
Please let me know how things go, if you feel any different on a morning. I can feel sedated on a morning with taking such a large dose on the evening, but if I didn't take so much I wouldn't be able to sleep as my mind goes into overdrive when I go to bed.
I am due to see my psychiatrist next month and I will ask him if the slow realise version will be suitable for me.
Good luck xx
