Anxiety
"I&#039;m diagnosed MDD &amp; Bipolar, Type 2, and this is the first medication I&#039;ve taken that has a significant positive impact on my anxiety without bad side effects. I usually worry, have circular negative thought patterns, and feel awkward and lost in my head most of the day. But I&#039;ve gone from 300mg to 400mg and now to 600 mg of generic gabapentin, and it works wonderfully. It doesn&#039;t make me sleepy, unlike benzos. Like quite a few people, I&#039;ve abused benzos in the past, but rarely get an urge to take too many gabapentin because of the limited recreational use. In conclusion: in my opinion, gabapentin is a wonder-drug for anxiety; especially for addicts and/or those with bipolar disorder."
