Default Insomnia after coming off Lyrica (pregabalin)

Hi I was only on Lyrica for 10 days at 150mg then stopped without tapering. I was fine for the first 3 days after I cam e off it but have gradually stopped becoming able to sleep. Its been 10 days now since I stopped and have slept 2 hours a night for the past 4 days. This is the only withdrawal symptom I am experiencing and don't feel all that tired. But I'm worried the damage that is being done and if ill ever actually recover from this.

I surprised at the lasting negative effect from taking it for such a short period of time. Can anybody give ms some advice? Should I start it again and the taper off or should I wait longer? Its just I've seen people on this thread say its taken months to recover. Is the withdrawal time related to the amount of time on the drug? Any help would be really appreciated as I am really getting scared. Thanks.
