Posted by mlpbob @mlpbob, 3 days ago

Had anyone had success using gabapentin for anxiety? My dr wants me to try it.

It takes the edge off of my anxiety from effexor withdrawal. I know I'll have to wean off of it someday, and not looking forward to it!

@mmsm I’m in Paxil withdrawal. I’m just scared to take something else I’m going to have to taper off of. My anxiety is horrible though.

It helps with my mood. In other words it is a subtle anti-depressant, but does little to lower anxiety. CBD oil helped relieve my anxiety, especially while coming off Effexor.
