Getting off of Seroquel

I tapered for 75mg to 50mg then 25mg my doctor told me how but I know it was too fast. I went off twice then had to get back on due to restlessness and agitation both times. My doctor said there are now withdrawals at 25 mg because it’s a low dose. That’s not correct though. So now I’m back on and I saw the link in the Facebook group Seroquel (quetiapine) should be illegal. They have a lot of information there.

@val56 There are typically standard tapering schedules but they can usually be adjusted to minimize withdraw symptoms. It is important to taper with a provider's guidance. I'm wondering if you've considered switching providers or getting a second opinion? There should be trust and collaboration between patient and provider and what I'm hearing is that you don't trust the provider is working in your best interest. Did I get that right?
