How bad are your symptoms? I have gotten some mild twitches and blurry vision from Seroquel. So far it hasn't been too bad though.
I hope it's not permanent for you.

Have you seen your doctor about this? It's important that you seek professional advice quickly. Stopping your medication might not fix it, and could make other symptoms worse so don't do anything drastic. There are drugs that can help with TD, and your doctor is the best person to ask about this.

I'm sorry that you are dealing with such difficult side effects at such a young age, that must be hard.
