Who has had experience with this drug? My doc said it should help my anxiety. He wanted to try this first then kolonopin unroll I pull out of this episode. So anything good bad about it. Thanks

Yes, it's supposed to... It's originally an anti-convulsant. Also called Neurontin. People seem to like it from what I've heard.

I took it for nerve pain. It left me unable to function. I always had a buzzed feeling. Light headed and sort of tired. Couldn't remember things.
I had to stop it. __________________ Bipolar II, GAD, Binge Eating Disorder Lamictal for BP Prozac for anxiety Topomax for BED |

Hmm interesting views. I just took it about 30 min ago and no real change. Oh well I'll wait it out.

I take it for Fibro .. The first few days or a weeks it usually knocks you out/ buzz feeling. My husband just started it a couple weeks ago for nerve pain , hes been wacky looney and relaxed for a few hours.
Hope it helps your anxiety

I took it for anxiety and back pain. It really helped, unfortunately I got weird cystic acne from it. So I stopped but I think that's are rare side effect.
