My hair is passed my shoulders and I certainly don't want to be bald AND depressed. I'm shedding more than my cats do!Hi RB,
A number of antidepressants (old and new) have been reported to cause hair loss (alopecia). Mood stabilizers such as Lithium, Depakote, Tegretol, and yes, Neurontin, have also been implicated in hair loss.
