"i have never in my 30 years of living been so happy &amp; alive thanks to the gabapentin and lithium my psychiatrist put me on almost 3 months ago. going back to my inpatient stay in march- i was suicidal because i didn&#039;t think there was any other way out of the pain and burden of being anxious 24/7. it paralyzed me. i felt helpless. now, i go to the gym, play with my son more, preform better at work, and all my relationships are much better. i can actually think to communicate. also, i don&#039;t go from 0 to 60 in 2 seconds anymore. i&#039;m like &quot;i got this. just breathe&quot; i can&#039;t even make myself anxious anymore. i&#039;ve tried. i am on 3000mg a day of gabapentin (5-600mg pills a day) and 600mg of lithium (2-300mg pills a day). true happiness!"
