Hello everybody! I've been on Gabapentin about 2 weeks. I'm up to 1200mg as of two days ago (600mg x 2 or I can break it up to have a dose in the middle of the day). My anxiety is still bad along with obsessing over stupid stuff. My sleep is better (as you guys know, I deal with terrible insomnia). Those who take it, what dose are you on with your other meds, and how long until you noticed a difference with anxiety, etc? I'm really trying to give it a chance since I'm running out of options and that has me scared. I have such bad reactions to drugs or they don't work. Also, I had gastric bypass many years ago and it's hard to know how much I digest of my meds.
