I am actually planning to go off gabapentin soon as it's really not worth this anxiety it causes, but I've been working myself into a worry about this over the past few months. I am finding mixed answers online, with some claiming it's hard on the kidneys and other sources claiming it's not nephrotoxic. I've been abusing it (but never really at doses exceeding about 5g tops, every other day) for about 8 years. Am I cooked? I have managed to get sober from everything else I was taking recreationally as it just wasn't good for my mental health at all, so I'm not worried about getting off of it. I'm just worried about the potential damage I might've done to myself.
