> Mitch...my dx is panic disorder. I can assure you that I was not having any type of depersonalization/derealization effect from the neurontin. Those two symptoms are predominate symptoms of my panic episodes and I am very familiar with each of them. The paranoid feeling I had from neurontin was something I had never experienced before that I had a hard time explaining to my pdoc. It is hard to put into words. It was some type of irrational fear that was just there. I was afraid of something but I couldn't figure out what. I was in no danger, often at home, alone. It was nothing like a panic attack. Panic hits hard and fast with a cascade of symptoms that overwhelm all my senses. This was sort of a low level fear that didn't go away, was just there. I was in complete control of my mental faculties and spent many hours trying to figure out what I was afraid of with no resolution.

This is exactly how I feel between doses ...I know when I'm late for my neurontin.
My memory is bad but at the moment I really need the anti-anxiety effect..which is stronger than any benzo I have taken. As for depression nothing as for mood I don't really know I'll leave that to my doc.
I should add , the strange unknown fear is usually the first sign of my breakdowns so I have had the feeling in the past -unmedicated.
Lets hope I'm not cracking up :-)
