"until i was fifty i dealt with life, and fear the best i could. going through catholic school in the sixties was pure hell. but i leaned to deal with generalized anxiety disorder and obsessive compulsive disorder the best i could. i become a perfectionist resulting in what others would call a very successful life. at fifty my wife divorced me throwing me into a ten year spin of uncontrollable anxiety. after trying almost every pill made, i tried gabapentin after one morning and one at lunch. i felt better for the first time in ten years. i have taken for nine months and most of the time i feel better than i have ever felt. a control calm i have never felt. i hope it continues to work."
