I take gabapentin, But it wasn't prescribed for mood. But I believe it
has helped my anxiety some along with my celexa generic.

I also know that when I first started it, it made me sleepy and helped
my sleep a lot. It still helps my sleep.

I take it for pain issues. I have fibromyalgia, and I take 1200 a day,
now. I've been on it for over 2 or 3 years now. I don't believe I've
ever had any side effects unlike others.

Its been a good drug for me.


I personally would say, if you trust your psychiatrist I would give
it a try. See how it goes, then decide. The only thing I would say
is if you want to wait say 4 days to start the morning dose that
would be okay. I believe I was told to wait 5 days. But remember
I take it for a different reason. And I started on 300mg too when
I started.
