Alternatingly, gabapentin either works great and has barely noticeable withdrawal, or a hellish acid reflux suffering tablet with the worst withdrawal in the world and I am once again a victim of the opioid crisis.
My doctor suggested gabapentin when I asked for an anxiety med, cool idea or no? It's an off-label use so I might be a victim again. My impression so far is that it feels like a very lightweight version of loprazolam, goofy and relaxed. I'm still stimming ofc but I'm also calmly vibing, and I can still feel my emotions which is nice. Pls tell me how over it is ✨
I see, that's pretty far on the "light" end of dosages.
It's not great lol.
The biggest risk of gabapentin is adding it to something else that already causes respiratory depression. Almost all gabapentin OD fatalities (which are already relatively few) involved combining it with other drugs that have higher risks. It's not at all a common issue with gabapentin on its own - even at doses 8-12x what you are currently taking.
Anything about medications and their interactions. Including addiction risks, adverse reactions to watch out for, dietary concerns, etc.
My pleasure. Good luck!
