Is it even wort starting?

Hello friends,

I'm 61 & have a hell of a time getting to bed. My pharmacist has prescribed Gabapentin starting 100 mg/day up to 3 a day.

I'm pretty anxious before I finally drag myself to bed around 3-4 am; I usually wake up at 9am, which isn't enough sleep.

I had a horrible experience with Neurontin about 15 years ago, felt horrible and really drugged out.

I wonder if it's even worth starting due to my past experience, if I get addicted (I realize I'm starting at a very low dose, but I have an addictive personality) and how bad the withdrawals would be.

I was going to start taking Trazadone, but I had to stop taking that in the past due to stomach issues.

NOTE: I take 40 mg of Adderall in the am for severe ADHD & horrible brain fog.

ANY and all responses greatly appreciated ❤💚💜💙
