Okay, thank you, I assumed it worked on GABA due to it being named gabapentin and because of its potential for abuse. I've just always assumed that taking drugs that make you less smart acutely might indeed make you less smart over the long-term too. I've known people who would take Gabapentin for a minor high.

Gabapentin can lead to dissociative, intoxicated-like, sedentary-like, and confusion-like state. It also partially/theoretically impairs long term memory formation similar to Ambien. I bet OD also leads to hallucinations.
