My sister is on gabapentin and said it takes a few weeks for the accumulative effects to kick in so give it time.
I looked at your last post and saw that you are scared to take ad's because of side effects. All meds have them (including gabapentin) but usually if you get any it will only be mild ones. It is rare to get more severe ones and if you did your doctor would change them immediately.
How about counselling? Are you having any of that? If you don't want medical help then there is only the self help route left, so have a look at mindfullness, meditation, yoga etc.
I take sertraline and the only side effects I get are a bit of a dry mouth and some nasty dreams. I consider it a good trade off as they help me a lot.
My life is a mess too Paul.Hope the AD kick in soon for you. Take care.
Thanks for reply I've just been given citrapram for my low mood any one had this before
