Summary

A Reddit user in r/cfs wrote that gabapentin had been a pretty good experience over several years, with no real negative side effects apart from feeling super tired when first starting it. The benefit had worn off, which they suspected was due to long-term use. Nothing was said about how ill they were, their onset, or their overall level of function.
