Adamo,
Just so you realize, not everyone has trouble discontinuing Gabapentin. I figure you won't read much about those who have no problems, as they don't need help so they don't need to reach out.
I have used up to 1800 mg Gabapentin. At one point I took 1200 mg for 2 years running, then tapered it by 300mg per day, every couple days -- basically in a week I was off it. I only tapered as a safety measure, because it is an AED, but I had no ill effects whatsoever.
I also use benzo's on and off, and I've tapered off them before. I have to taper very, very slowly. I've inadvertently messed up a benzo taper before (by forgetting to take meds) and I most certainly did run into problems then!
