I have been on pregabalin for 6 months now and am tapering off the drug (from 600mg to 450mg initially) for exactly the reasons that you mentioned in your post. I must stress that it is effective for some people and initially it did work for me too. I would liken it to benzos without the addictive qualities. However I have been wondering around in a trance like state for some time and for someone who already suffers from feelings of derealisation, this is not a good thing.
I am posting the link if you haven't already read it, it may be of some help to you.
Best of luck.

I am coming off this but only taking 50mg for back pain. I was too afraid to increase the dose. I am on lithium and mirtazapine and have found it very sedating. EJ

I felt drunk and kept bashing into walls and doors for a couple of days maybe a week and then got better.. But then I am 90 odd kilos so maybe it doesn't effect me as much.
