I'm curious as to why you ask about Neurontin...I'm dx with BP I and I use to take 1200 mgs 3x day for anxiety. Now I take it whenever I need to for anxiety. I haven't actually taken it in about 3 months. The Neurontin made me kinda "blank" like I was hard to hold conversations with, just stupid in a way. But, other than that no side effects that I can recall. But, it doesn't do squat for Bipolar Disorder. There was a bit of a scandal a while back about that. The drug company said it did. I also took Depakote for a while. But, I didn't like it. I didn't take it long enough to really have an accurate opinion. It was in conjunction with Lithium.
