"i have been using gabapentin (300 mg twice daily) for about a month now, and i am very happy with it. i had been plagued by anxiety for most of my life (i&#039;m 47 now), and my anxiety reached intolerable levels in the last year or so due to a very demanding new job. i finally decided i needed some sort of medication, and after trying wellbutrin (thumbs down), i asked for gabapentin. this med is doing exactly what i needed it to do: it is reducing my fears, uncontrollable worries, and hair-trigger adrenaline response to almost zero. those bad feelings are down to like 2 out of 10, and before it was usually like 8 or 9.  wish i&#039;d started taking it a long time ago!"
