I have not had any seizures to my knowledge and am not epileptic so I don't see any reason to be taking this medication. I wish I had known about its relative dangers before starting it. I want to discontinue it but I seem to be having withdrawal symptoms. Trying to hold steady at 1200mg/day and then taper down to 900.

Why do doctors insist on prescribing medications without explaining the downsides? I specifically asked my neuro before taking it if gabapentin was habit forming and he told me no.

Another failure of the United States medical system. I am going to write a book about this pathetic display eventually.
