Alcohol Withdrawal
"Just found this site. Was prescribed Gabapentin 3 yrs. ago for neck pain. Made me too groggy &amp; sleepy so didn&#039;t take the 1200 mgs daily as prescribed. I stopped using it. It was also to help neuropathy. Drs. never mentioned it would ease anxiety or withdrawals from alcohol. As a binge drinker 25 yrs. I&#039;m willing to try it again to stop alcohol cravings. BUT have read withdrawals from gabbys are severe, as bad as withdrawals from 1) alcohol &amp;  2) opiates. Anyone off gabbys &amp; if so how bad was it? Am not going to start them until I hear pros and cons of stopping them. Only took sporadically. None in 2016. Am 57 yr. old female have a prescription. Thanks."
