So my Spravato sessions were out on hold for a month because I think my Gabapentin may have interacted with my Spravato and made me a little too sedated. My Psychiatrist couldn't reach my UNRELIABLE NURSE PRACTITIONER for FOUR WEEKS to connect with her about this to maybe lower my dose or stop gabapentin and I've been messaging my NP 3 times telling her my Spravato was on hold for unknown reasons and my anxiety and depression had increased significantly since abruptly stopping treatment. I take gabapentin on my days off work(Weds - Spravato treatment and counseling days and Sundays) for migraine prevention. I only take it twice a week because I hate how it makes me feel: drowsy, high in a bad way, clumsy, shaky, blurry vision, bad on kidneys, sedated, sleepy, groggy, etc... I'm afraid if I stop it completely I'll get side effects and my migraines will increase. Anyways, anybody have experiences similar with bad side effects on Gabapentin or Gabapentin with Spravato? I want to get off Gabapentin completely. I've never had "any noticeable withdrawal" symptoms from it on the days I don't take it. (5 days a week)

Any advice or info? I'd much rather discontinue gabapentin and continue Spravato. I've been having panic attacks and severe depression the past few weeks. I'm already on Topamax and Singular and NARITRIPTAN which are for migraines.

Help

I have been on Spravato on and off for about 3 years now. It has helped my GAD, PTSD, ADHD, PMDD AND TRD immensely. But I abruptly stopped due to bad communication with my clinic, apparently my Psychiatrist is super busy and I haven't had a session going on one month tomorrow. I don't think the Dr is supposed to abruptly stop your medication like that. I was having biweekly treatment and then all of a sudden they stopped schedule without warning or explanation or communication.

I've been suffering worsening depression, panic attacks, bad sleep, everything has gone down hill the past three weeks.

I'm thinking of going to another Spravato clinic or the at-home troche therapy. How long does it take to get into the Home Troche therapy? I wish there was a medicine in place or a troche in place for this gap I'm having, I feel awful. I feel like I was medically abandoned. Everyday feels like pulling teeth. I'm so frustrated 🥴 any advice?
