Default Would you start a new med knowing you're likely to become dependant on it?

My Lyrica journey continues.

Have only taken two capsules, two separate days, wonderfully effective for cutting my pain, but when it wears off, I become an absolute Dragon!

Gives me a thumping headache, feel like I could kill something and the pain returns.

I feel like I'm in the film 'Awakenings'.

All i need is different colour tiles on the kitchen floor.

So my question is, I can see this becoming a dependancy to reach for the magic pill, not only to prevent the headache, but to keep the pain under control. Is it worth it? What is it really doing to me? What would you do?
