Hi all, I have GAD and have basically been in a constant state of very heightened anxiety and panic for the past two months. I was prescribed Gabapentin to help me sleep by my neurologist as my headaches were keeping me up/causing me to not rest well overall. Last night I took 2 300mg doses about 30 minutes/1 hour apart and noticed about 2 hours later I was very calm. It kinda felt like I was drunk but without the bad stuff like nausea if that makes sense. I also noticed I had no racing thoughts like I usually do. It was just very calm/a bit emotionally numbing.

Anyways I did some research and found out Gabapentin is also used to treat anxiety sometimes and was wondering if anyone here has had experience with it? How did it work/didn't work for you? I'm considering bringing it up to my GP as I've been considering anxiety meds but have been a bit hesitant.
