I've already made the decision to cold turkey. I haven't had any Neurontin for 36 hours. Last night, I did have a terrible time sleeping, had night sweating and the shakes. Tremors, muscle spasms and some pain. I did have some really bad shakes last night, but found that propping in a fetal sitting position on the couch with a bunch of pillows around me helped me get some uninterrupted rest and was able to go in the bed mid morning.
Today, I woke up feeling a million times better and SO clear headed. I feel like a black cloud was lifted. I've been taking Flexeril to help, drinking lots of water with EmergenC packs, and taking hot baths.
I too have been having a lot of suicidal ideations. I would never act upon them, but I didn't know the Neurontin causes stuff like that. I've never had thoughts like that before. I've decided to continue with the Welbutrin. I have a bunch of refills left on that. Plus, it will help this detox be easier on me. I will taper off of that later with a doctor.
But anyway, I feel a ton better, and it's great.
