I told my psychiatric np that Gabapentin is helping me. My GP internist prescribed it for nerve pain last nov. So my pnp prescribed it for me on fri because I was out of refills. With the low dose of risperdal I'm taking, together they (ris. and gab.) are addressing and helping all my depression and anxiety problems. I feel relaxed, calm and pretty upbeat. Plus the Gabapentin does not stifle my emotions like antidepressants did to me. Not sayin they do that to everyone. It was my experience.
