SLS-Gabapentin

SLS, I remember you mentioning cognitive blunting with Gabapentin long after discontinuing the drug. How long did it take after discontinuing for your cognition to get back to normal? I only take 300 mg at night to help with sleep and do feel cognitive blunting, which surprises me for such a low dose.

Not to discourage you, but it took at least 3 weeks before the cloud lifted. It was more than disturbing, but less than tormenting. This actually happened to me twice. Desperation is a cruel motivator.

I'll try to answer any questions you may have. That everyone reacts so differently to the same one drug makes it difficult to generalize.
