Hi all!
Lyrica is the best thing that happened to me in 15 years. I have tried nearly every medication on the planet for my severe anxiety and untreatable depression, that includes SSRI's, SNRI's TCA's, MAOi's, Benzos, Ketamine infusions, Cognitive behavioral therapy, ECT(which was a nightmare) and many illegal substances with zero help (except Nardil, which was good, but had enormous side-effect profile and stopped working gradually as the years past). I've taken 150 mg twice a day since last week (i'm a big guy and usually need more of any drug to have any effect). After the dose was raised to therapeutical level it has literally made me a new human, i feel like i was a boy, before the depression and anxiety started to ruin my life. For the first few days i felt kind of weird and out of it, but as time past i started do feel better and better each day. I used to have a panic attack when i woke up, just by wondering what a disaster the day will be and how much will i be suffering again. Now i wake up every morning feeling excited about the new beautiful day ahead. It's like Pregabalin is the chemical that was missing in my brain all that time. I have noticed zero side-effects, which is awesome, i actually started to lose weight! I feel much more intelligent now as the anxiety and depression is gone and i can focus again. I expected it to ease my anxiety somewhat, but what i didn't expect is, that it completely killed it along with the treatment resistant depression. I'm back to work after years since the Nardil started to fade out! I feel healthy functioning person now, not high like when i started nardil, just feel good to be alive! God the music at the cafeteria sounded live early in the morning today just like it did before i got sick. I know it's only been few weeks and is my honeymoon phase, but I really hope it continues to give me relief! As what i have read if it works it works! Thank you science!!
And as always, have a nice day!
