Yes,

I have to agree that Neurontin has only helped me.

I'm on Celexa 40mg/day, WellbutrinXL 300mg/day, and Neurontin 600mg at night.

The Neurontin prevents Bruxism for me. I don't grind my teeth or bite my tongue at night anymore! Also, it seemed to add a bit of mood brightening in the background. It was very subtle.

All of us have one med or two or more that we cannot stand to take. For me I really don't ever want to go back on Effexor XR if I can help it even though it really worked for the depression. It made me numb from the waiste down and that was an untolerable side-effect for me.

So, there are good reports about the effects of Neurontin and there are scary reports too. The same can be said for just about any psychoactive medication on the market today. It all depends on what works for you.

If it makes you more depressed then tell the doc and get off of it and on something else if needed.
