I found neurontin to be pretty decent for anxiety, especially the racing thoughts/ruminating type, although I was on zyprexa at the same time. But zyprexa's anxiolytic effects typically wane for me pretty fast, so Im pretty confident it was mostly the neurontin doing the job. After awhile I did notice that it was impairing me cognitively, however. I dont think this is a common side effect though, and it probably depends on the dose (I was on 1800mg a day). I now only take it if I cant sleep (klonopin (and to some extent zyprexa) now covers the anxiety).
