Morning Mari
Its evident that the choice of taking medications or not is yours to take, I can only speek of my experience when I was in therapy...seem's like a century ago I chose to go with the parmacotherapy in concert with regular therapy I can say today that it was a good choice on my part as I needed the medical help that was offered to me.
I do not know what makes you scared about the meds but you should in my view have a talk with your Doctor so you can weight the pros & cons.

Yea try consulting a doc or therapist for Seroquel if you have insomnia issues. im personally on it and it totally helps me sleep at night. MY therapist gave me that casue i myself was having sleeping problems left n right, so he started me on a the lowest dose it comes in and that even did its job.
