Reply to comment by DamonSing in An anti-seizure medication shows promise in reducing the likelihood of heavy drinking, desire to drink, and positive alcohol expectancies, according to new research by chrisdh79
I've been on it for 7 years for migraines and it's been a god send. It might also be for someone else for this purpose or it might not. Let's not discourage (or even encourage) someone based on anecdotal evidence.

Iām glad it works for you, but I would highly recommend any person thinking of taking it do serious research before starting it. Many people have had horrific experiences on this medication and I will continue to discourage people from taking it regardless of your anecdotal positive experience.

Any person should do research, to include speaking to their doctor and/or pharmacist, before taking any medication. I have had horrendous experiences with other medications but I'm not going around telling people to not take them. It's not for me or you to decide if there are better ways for a person to manage their illnesses.
