I was an active alcoholic for twenty-two years. Four years ago I was diagnosed bipolar II and prescribed Neurontin.
Within ten days of starting Neurontin I felt better and lost all desire to drink. After six months, I attended about 60 AA meetings to learn about living the sober life. I have had little difficulty remaining sober since -- even though I have switched to Lamictal.
My doctor says Neurontin often stops drinking and also marijuana use.
I wonder why this isn't more publicized. Comments and experiences welcome.
