one of my current doctors, prescribes gabapentin for my anxiety & panic disorder. I m on a small dose of only 200mg twice daily , due to insomnia, I find that I cannot take after 3pm or it adds to my insomnia problems. my dr. continues to tell me it should be helping with my anxiety, which it is not! she s always wanting to up my dose, but I ve had bad side affects with higher doses. so I tell her no. Getting very frustrated! & looking for other medications that can be used to help with anxiety & panic disorder. Without feeling drugged like most anxiety medication do. Such as benzodiazepines & other tranquilizers. I also have some sensitive & opposite reactions to some anxiety medications!!!!!! Lost & hiding out to avoid my triggers, which has been taking over my life for some time. Wanting to get out & live my life. only 52 years old & been dealing with this issue for many years & really tired of being told the same thing over & over. And still doesn t work!!!! VERY FRUSTRATED
