Please share your experiences with using gabapentin!

Hello everyone,

I am currently tapering Klonopin with the help of a psychiatrist.

She has prescribed me gabapentin for use as needed for my anxiety and withdrawal symptoms.

I’ve done some reading and have found conflicting things about the benefits of gabapentin for benzodiazepine withdrawal.

I have tried the medication and it does an incredible job of getting rid of my anxiety and withdrawal at even a tiny dosage (100 mg).

If I can use it just as needed—say, 100 to 300 mg two or three times a week at most rather than every day, I’m hoping that I could avoid creating a dependency.

I’d love to hear your experiences with this medication for withdrawal and/or anxiety

Thanks to anyone who is willing to share their experience!
