Hi,

I think the main effect the neutontin has on me is helping me
sleep but everyone is different.  I am not sure if it is doing anything
for my anxiety or not but I know if I cant sleep, then my anxiety
goes through the roof so therefore I take it.  I am also on prozac
which helps with my depression/anxiety.  I have taken lamictal
which is a mood stabilizer int he past and it was good for my
depression as well.  

Best wishes,
