Anxiety
"I started Gabapentin 7 days ago taking 200mg twice per day. My GAD is worst in the morning and slowly subsides as the day goes on. I also stopped Valium 7 days ago. After many years of using benzos I decided it was enough as I&#039;m sure it was just making my anxiety worse and certainly wasn&#039;t helping. Gabapentin has helped me and I feel a lot better than when I was on Valium. I don&#039;t know if I&#039;m getting Valium withdrawal effects since it&#039;s only been 1 week or side effects from Gabapentin. Feel some nausea, light headed and my breathing is heavy. Overall better and can manage."
