That said I am also on Gabapentin to ease the cravings and it helps.
That particular Pill makes me drink More than usual.
That shit for me,might as well be Cocaine. There is No limit and up ALL night.
I only drink and smoke a lil bit.
I have Quit drinking Completely Twice. Once for 4 years and most Recently,over a year. I found my way back to drinking Beer (Whiskey and me are NOT Friends) recently and I've been skipping days from that,still.
Gabapentin,is not something I like,normally. But if taken before drinking, I can go all night and say "Fuck It" and keep going.
Odd how it affects different people I guess.
I'm in the process of cutting out drinking at All,again. But right now it's just a pain nummer.
It's not Healthy and I know that. But it works on bad days. Or around others that are doing the same.
I rather have a few tokes and leave the rest a alone.Much better for you than Alcohol.
Having worked Security in Clubs, Bars,Concerts and such for 20 + Years as a side job, it kinda come with the Territory. But I broke that habit and went in Sober for years. That's a story for another time.
Good Luck,Everybody that has reckonized that it has become an issue in Daily Life.
