Hey Trend! I totally understand that you're a little confused here. Perhaps you heard some really positive results from others who have used this drug, while you have not gotten much out of it.
All of these drugs work differently for different people right? So there are always going to be discussions going back and forth regarding the proa and cons of the Gabapentinoids.
So, in short, we are not going to be able to give you a truly accurate or scientific solution to your quandary. Your best bet is to just continue experimenting with the drug through varying dosages and dosing schedules.
You migh find, that if you take the drugs in a different way, they will in turn be much more effective. I wouldn't give up on these drugs yet, and they can be so beneficial in so many ways.
