My main point about Gabapentin is at half way down the post :)
Ok I had a huge downward spiral around late decemeber all the way towards a few days ago.
On paxil 9.0-9.5 MG, and clonazepam, and ritalin, and gabapentin... and taking protein powder shakes daily... and then i tried Creatine for extra weight gain....
I began to really go downhill and I didn't know why. I stopped the Creatine yet kept on taking Protein powder which I may stop too if I can find a weight gain solution so i am not some skinny brat that no girl would want... i need that extra weight because with it all of a sudden women Would actually want me.
So anyway....
The Gabapentin.... Desperately trying to find a solution for losing my huge sex drive (sex drive surged after i dropped 10mg paxil into 9.5 and even lower), and loss of motivation, loss of social ability, anxiety increase, you name it...
* * *
I needed a solution. I stopped gabba for 3 days and felt just as rotten as usual. Then I tried it again... 200mg... along with taking ritalin a bit earlier and clonazepam too... and of course paxil at noon (much earlier). So I took this Gabapentin around 5pm... just to see what the heck it might do...AND ALL OF A SUDDEN after 5-10-20 or however many minutes I felt this miracle of wanting to talk to people again. I felt ALIVE and my sex drive surged too. It was unbelievable how huge this difference was. My motivation? Went up as well. I actually wanted to persue finding photoshoots and I wanted to meet up with my old friends (still do). That day I took 200mg again and then later at night 100mg again... My motivation to meet women and sex drive were really up there... I would be talking to these girls and having um ''inappropriate'' discussions lol for 6+ hours.... and able to orgasm several times compared to not wanting to in the past entire week.
So yes... it was quite the miracle... My intellectual ability not quite restored but I still felt so social.
Now has been the 2nd day... that I have tried this Gabapentin... The effect.... is lower.... but it is still there and... i do feel social enough to talk to people, meet people, make plans, do photography, have sex,....
I feel like I can do all of that again but... when I took that protein powder today (thursday night) i felt like crap for a good 3+ hours until that effect went away. So maybe I should stop that all together and just stuff myself with food as much as possible to fight my fast metabolism.
I just hope I can remain this way because I want to meet women and I do not want to dissapoint. I want to meet up with my friends and I want to be able to be social and funny and whatnot....
So I hope it all goes well and I will try a different brand of protein powder when i get some darn money. I am so sick of being almost broke. But... I am glad that I do not feel like hell anymore... this Gabapentin really has worked. Whatever it is doing to my brain. And I dont mean to be graphic but my testicles have GROWN in size and appear so much fuller.... what on earth this medication is doing? Who knows. Maybe increasing blood circulation in my body and down there... Who knows. But I am enjoying it.
Does Gabapentin have a tendency to poop out after a while? or does it generally maintain it's same effect on people for a long long time? because day 2 was not as good as Day 1.
Thanks for reading and any advice on anything I wrote would be much appreciated.
