I started taking neurontin about five years ago after a friend’s mom introduced it to me. It worked wonders for my anxiety but I did not know that it was considered non-addictive. I haven’t taken it in years so I cannot say this for sure but I think it would be at the very least emotionally addictive if not physically as well. However I had no problems with physical w/ds ending my treatment with it but I have never experienced physical w/ds with any benzos either. Neurontin is not in the same class as benzos though, at least that was my understanding.

I will say neurontin helped me more than any other medication I have ever taken to treat anxiety… specially for me panic attacks. I would definately do some more research on it. Sorry I couldn’t be of more help.
