Trying again...

[teej]

As I was hiding in my bed this morning too anxious to do anything this morning I realized I had to do something...

I'm still trying to taper off the Mirtazapine which seems to increase my anxiety, the Trazodone was an absolute nightmare - I only took 1/4 of a pill, and the call of the Vodka bottle is getting too strong.

So I jumped in and took 150 mg of pregabalin. I figured I didn't have any major problems on 250mg spread across the day and in the absolute worse case I'd stay in bed.

Well about half an hour after taking it I felt some instant relief from the anxiety, hopped on my bike and rode to work! So maybe last time I just didn't give it a fair chance!

Fingers crossed for second time round!

Good luck, Teej!

Day by day improvements here. It's a daily fight but I'm slowly winning.

I'm now up to the full 600mg. Have really felt no major side effects other than being much calmer. Was quite looking forward to a drunken euphoria but nope!

Well on the way to letting the mirtazapine drop off too hopefully and then I'm really hoping thinks will be well on the way back to stability.
