I was recently started on Gabapentin for anxiety. So far, I haven't had side effects and it seems to help. My dosage is being increased gradually up to 900 milligrams a day o.o
If anyone has any experience with this, feel free to share it here

I take 1200 Mgs of gabapentin. To be honest I don't feel anything on it. No side effects but no good effects either. Good luck

Just the first 100 milligrams gave me a hard kick in the butt
but then, everyone reacts differently

I just hope I don't build a lot of tolerance to it...

I took it awhile ago for sleep, and it worked decently. I don't remember having any side effects from it.

Now I'm on Lyrica which is a similar med, and I absolutely LOVE it!

I am on 300mg for non-diabetic nerve pain. 600 gives me some of the worst headaches I have ever had and I have had tension and migraines for 21 years.

It did nothing for my anxiety at first, but after a few months I can tell a significant difference. It doesn't get rid of all of it but helps make me more functional.

It helped me for years but eventually it started having a reverse effect. I never had side effects with it.

I'm also taking Buspar
Buspar took away the worst of my anxiety, but most of it still remained. I think the new Gabapentin cleared up 99 percent of the remaining anxiety. I feel much better.
