gabapentin: This drug has been helpful with my anxiety. I take 300mg 4 times a day. It has not made me tired or groggy in anyway. I am impressed and glad my doctor prescribed it for me.

gabapentin: I have just started taking Gabapentin and it has been very effective in leveling me out so I can better handle daily life stress and crisis. It doesn't seem to have any conflicts with several other medicines I take. It may make you drowsy, but I'm very impressed with the results so far. I take three 300 MG capsules per day. I'm very glad my doctor prescribed this drug.

gabapentin: My Doctor gave me this medication because I am going through a very stressful time and I was having an emotional melt down. I take 600 mg before bed or as needed during the day and it always calms me down. It feels like my whole body is numb. It also works good for restless leg syndrome. It can make me forgetful and groggy so I don't drive if I've just taken a dose. It may not be a good medicine for someone who has a job or needs to be very alert and focused. No other side effects. I've been on it for 2 weeks and it's been a lifesaver.

gabapentin: I was only taking 600mg (2 x 300mg) an hour before bed. I overslept every day while taking this medication. I also felt groggy in the morning, stumbling to bathroom when I first wake up. Did not really help with anxiety or my mood.

gabapentin: Although this medicine is not approved and is used off label for anxiety it has helped me a lot. I have been on it for 3 weeks and when I don't take it I can tell. I have tried Vistoril and had not luck with that so my doctor had me try this. I would highly recommend this medicine.
