Yes, there are some other drugs that might help you better than benzo's. Trazodone and/or buspar come to mind. You might want to ask your doctor about these. Since the neurontin helps, the Trazodone might too. Remeron is another thought.

I'm not a doctor, but a nurse who has see these meds work wonders.
