Thanks Diane.
I did try neurontin 2 years ago when I was in the psych ward. Don`t remember much about it, so I guess it wasn`t much help. Too little? Too much? Too short a trial? Who knows. I do know that I`m going to take another look, based on your advice and also on what I read about it in Feeling Good; The New Mood Therapy by David Burns.
Meanwhile, I`m here just looking for a general consensus on the most effective treatments.
Thanks again.

Sincerely,
Bob
