Neurontin (Gabapentin)

[Who Me?]

I was put on mega doses of this in the late 90's because of how it worked on the brain. Seemed ok while it worked then I started to hallucinating so stopped. And gained 60 lbs in 8 months.

haven't taken this but was prescribed carbamazepine for pain that was unresponsive to other drugs (although magnesium was a small help). It is also used for neuropathic path and was effective once it built up in my system. However I felt like a zombie, had nausea and suicidal thoughts at first and had to stop taking the supplements (like N-acetylcysteine) that were helping me improve. Luckily the pain went and I could wean myself off the drug.
