I tried Pregabalin for just over 1 month. It would've been shorter, had I not started tapering from 4 pills (300mg daily) per day for 2 weeks +. It's been nearly 2 months since I've not taken any Pregabalin pills. I still have tinnitus and hearing problems, visual snow & disturbances, I'm sensitive to light now, extreme anxiety, suicidal ideation (where I DON'T WANT TO DIE, I just can't stop thinking about it whereas before I didn't have this, OCD morbid thoughts.. again, didn't have this before. I feel like I'm going crazy every day. I can't focus on my dreams and goals, and the main reason I keep going is that I'm hoping I'll heal eventually and I want to make my girlfriend as happy as I can. I'm now thinking I might have to resort to SSRIs as the anxiety prevents me from work or studying. I've lost so much in such a short span. Life is not enjoyable when all the good moments are filled with a big dose of fear. At least the physical symptoms stopped a while back. I couldn't sleep at all for the first few nights. I was prescribed a benzodiazapene, but even that didn't really help so I stopped after 5 nights. I feel depersonalized/derealized quite often, like all of this is just a bad dream. I have trouble regulating temperature, but it was way worse. I'd get full body chills. I had near psychosis, and was so scared to go outside. I feared public transport and other people. I was experiencing some weird electric shock type feeling in my left upper leg. |
4th day off lyrica. I can relate to all your symptoms

Too too bad for all the distress of this drug. For me, and I take 95% supplements for nerve damage and all the OA issues I deal with, I would never take a drug splashed over our tv media as it is. Those pharma people are spending millions to get people on their lab produced drugs. To me, it's criminal.
Was just thinking today and I'm 81 and so have a lot of past and thinking about healing medicine...real medicine has been around for 1000's of years and should NOT be called alternative...but the pharma science drugs are the real alternatives and very toxic to our bodies. All $$$ driven. So much out there to help us, we just have to change our MINDS. |
