I don't know anything about Seroquil, but there are supplements that will help lessen the misery of withdrawals by giving the brain what it needs to function properly. I wish I would have known about these supplements when I went off Effexor as I'm sure it would have made my life less stressful.
Here's an article on the subject:

Yeah, I've had patients who use those vans, you really have to be disabled. I also live almost an hour and a half away from the hospital where I work, so alternative forms of transportation -which I've looked into- just aren't there.
Thanks for the link, but Seroquel is an antipsychotic, not an antidepressant. I think I'm going to have to rely on my support system and maybe some meditation and whatever I can muster to get through any withdrawal from the Seroquel (and just no longer having its benefits). As for supplements, my mother's been getting on me about taking some (for my general health, not BP), and I'm planning on asking my pdoc about them to also make sure they don't interact with my current meds.
Thanks for your suggestions.
