Yeah, I've actually used Seroquel for this end and it did work...somewhat. I never went over 150 mg per day, because I felt that it was making me more and more emotionally blunted and dull (but it did take the edge off from the spastic attacks). Although I was battling depression at the time aswell and wasn't taking any ADs (for obvious reasons). So the dullness might have been caused by the mix of Seroquel and depression, as Seroquel on its own does little to help depression.
