Hi guys,
Not a frequent poster here but feel i need to get something down in writing as that may help how im feeling.
Been on pregabalin for about 9 months now for headaches, dizziness and GAD and have recently come off it as of last week to go onto Buspirone.
As there was a mix up at my GP i didn't get my new presciption before i had finished pregabalin so have been off any meds for a week and am not feeling dizzy of having headaches at all... but..
Since coming off pregabalin i have been very very down and depressed?.
I feel at times very emotional and then sometimes very angry with rage, my eating patterns have gone out the window and am waking in the night and not being able to get back to sleep.
Ive never felt like this before, i know i suffer with GAD but this to me feels different. I feel im digging myself into a whole that i may not be able to get myself out of if im not careful.
Has anyone else experienced this coming off pregabalin? Initially i was taking 50mg twice a day and my pshcyatrist told me to go to 50mg once a day for a week then stop, so its not really like i finished it abruptly.
Thanks for reading, hope your all well.
