My dr prescribed me 100mg of gabapentin for anxiety and im kinda nervous to take it, I take 1mg of klonopin 2x times daily but it’s not working anymore after two years. I’m wondering what you felt like the first time you took it.
Does 100mg of gabapentin help for anxiety?

Gabapentin does help with anxiety! It makes you very sleepy at 1st and then you get used to it.
I only take it once in awhile for times of heightened anxiety.
I also take Klonopin brand name 75% of a .5mg pill. I couldn't take generic klonopin, kept causing rebound anxiety. Have you tried brand name?
I don't want to up-dose either. I also bought a natural Gaba supplement called Calm by Source Naturals at the Vitamin Store and I find that helps too.
I know this is a horrible condition.
