My 30 year old autistic daughter has been on pregabalin since March and is currently on 100mg in the morning and 100mg in the evening.

She has had constant headaches, general aches and pains, palpitations, derealisation and has developed a fear of going in the car which she hasn't had before.

She is terrified of what my son is going to do, mental health-wise (he was sectioned last year) and is also very frightened of getting covid (she had contamination OCD before the pandemic)

There's a hell of a lot to contend with at home but I really don't think the meds are helping at all. Maybe they are making things worse?

She can't take SSRIs as she quickly develops severe neutropenia and has to isolate. SNRIs have little effect.

I know there are no answers but just wanted to ask about people's experiences of pregabalin.

Thanks for any advice..
