Neurontin - Sure, deal me in....

As others have observed, it is used for certain types of pain, seizure disorders, and mood stabalization; I am taking 1200mg to control mood swings. That said, it does seem to sooth the pain of "raw nerve endings" in your brain - i.e., calm you down. But I've never heard of it being prescribed just for anxiety relief - that would really be psychic overkill, IMHO

Only side effects seem to be clumsiness; esp. the first few weeks and when my dose was increased, and possible memory loss - no big deal, really, as most of the past is worth forgetting anyway, if only to make room for all the possibly neat stuff in the present and future....

Hope that helps
FP
