> > CHrissy, I have beenn on Neurontin for a while now. I am now up to 3000mg, which is pretty high. I am no ecpert,but I can tell you from my own experience along with extensive research that I have had no luck with Neurton alone. I wAS REALLY hesitant about taking the Klonopin on a regular basis, but it works for me. and that's the bottome line. I take 2mg a day, spread out over the course of the day. Two of which are taken at night to help me sleep. I too suffer from sever anxiety along with our bipolar. The Neurontin has help in alot of ways, with anger and agitation, I am much calmer now. Talk to you doc and do as much of your homework as you can on your own. There is tons of onfo out there. NIH is a great place to start. Trust you own body and try not to go by what works for eveybody else. This is a tough sight in that we all want to know what everyone else experiences on dugs but yet I feel it kind of plants seeds in the minds of those just starting new drugs. Good luck to you! ELlen
