has anyone had any experiences where an over the counter med or vitamin has helped ease anxiety? i take neurontin now, which does nothing. i have a history of drug addiction and therefore don't take benzos anymore. but i feel like i am dying. i don't know how to keep going on without some relief...

Can you explain what you mean by you feel like you are dying?

Cause I've had that feeling too and I wonder if we're feeling the same thing?

HI Hun -

Are you in pain - the gabapentin /neurontin is frequently a nerve pain med or for siezures.

hugs

I could need some relief too:/ I am taking B-vitamins and Omega 3, some sport would help a little bit...what else?

@ Arual001, Some people have reported some success with Lyrica after stopping benzos. It is similar to neurontin but stronger I believe. I have taken neurontin but it did not help me that much either. I would seriously start thinking about some of the non drug approaches. Unlike drugs, these require some hard work unlike swallowing a pill and waiting for it to take some psychoactive effect.
