In reply to Neurontin withdrawal felt like opiate withdrawal, posted by MB on July 16, 2003, at 13:29:24
Thank you. I can't wait to tell my doctor about all the emails and posted replys I have received. The One and ONLY salvation in this whole mess is that now I know that I HAVEN'T "LOST" MY MIND..........And that is PRICELESS.
The dosage I am on is 3,600 mg. daily.....which is 3 each of 400mg capsuls, 3 times daily.
I have never detoxed from Opiates, but I do know several people who went the Methadone route and some were successful, some not, more not because it was so easy to detox when they "felt" like it.
Wherein, Neurontin and the FACT that I AM PSYICALLY addicted has always produced the same response from all my doctors....."Debbie, it's all in your mind, Neurontin is NOT Addicting"...AND I'M THE CRAZY ONE????????
Obviously it was ME that finally did the research because I KNEW I WAS RIGHT AND THESE SO CALLED DOCTORS WERE WRONG, WRONG, WRONG.....I WAS NOT "IMAGINING" HOW ILL AND SICK IN MY HEAD I WAS BECOMING.
God it feels sooooooooo good to be right and to know I am NOT INSANE.........there is hope for the future.
