I'd like to look into gabapentin for anxiety...

Let us know if you change meds and how you do...

Will do that. Abilify was mentioned to me by my last psy-doc. Lithium too was recommended but I deferred. After trying 3 diff antipsychotics over the course of a year [this was way back] I just gave up that route. I was pretty miserable at the time. Should have persevered though. A lot of wasted years that I'll never have back. The topic is def going to be brought up next time I see my family doc. I hope anyway. One more kick at the can.
