Chris,
I don't know why you take neurontin, but it tends to have a calming effect that can make one feel tired...hence depressed in your case??? Or Neurontin isn't working well for you???. As you will see, everyone reacts differently to these meds. Neurontin may not be a good fit or you need to add something to it, perhaps.Neurontin seems to be rarely used alone. It is often part of a "cocktail" to augment other agents like an AD or mood stabilizer.
Perhaps you need an antidepressant in your mix to have you feel less depressed but still get the added calming and stabilizing effects of N.
Just a thought. Hope you start feeling better
Chloe
