> I have had great results with Neurontin for nine years. It works very well for anxiety, and mood. My proublem is Im an un able to stop taking it without experiencing horrible withdrawl worse than I experienced with xanax after running out due to a mix up years ago. It may depend on your personal body chemistry and how you taper off wheather you feel withdrawl or not but be carefull Scott, this stuff really screwed with

Wow! We were just talking about withdrawal syndromes produced by Neurontin in another thread about pregabalin. I didn't think it was as severe as for the benzodiazepines.Can you describe some of the things you experienced as the withdrawal syndrome? Did you taper your dosage or discontinue it abruptly? If you did taper, do you recall at what dosage the withdrawal symptoms appeared?
Thanks for your input.
