Not a professional but it took 2 months to get over withdrawal from seroquel at night with a dose of 100mg and am still getting agitated.

I was on 400 mg of Seroquel and stopped cold turkey...it SUCKED..I do not suggest it...talk to a doctor first, or atleast slowly decrease the dose...
I was also stopping two other meds at the same time, but I was miserable for about 2 weeks..

I quit taking Seroquel and I didn't notice any withdrawal symptoms--but I was on a controlled research study for Seroquel as a treatment for Major Depression.
I wouldn't recommend quitting without talking to your doctor, you might have different symptoms than mine.

well, Seroquel is an anti-psychotic, so it would lessen the amount of dopamine in the synapse. Because of this, the withdrawal symptoms will probably be the oposite of what the drug did for you. Most anti-psychotics tend to drain people of energy, so it would be safe to say that a withdrawal symptom could be insomnia. Anxiety would be another symptom.

PLEASE don't stop it cold turkey. Talk to your prescribing doctor first.
