I have been on pregabolin for six months Has certainly helped with anxiety although take it at night so that I don't feel wuzzy. Think are are side effects to all medication but find this one affects me least. Take one 100mg at night and it does help sleep Frightened to come off it which is not good Not sure how high your dose it

I'm on 50mg a day and 225mf venflaxine which is doing absolutely nothing x

Pregabalin makes my depression and anxiety worse. I cannot use it, though others have good effects.

I think it may be doing the same to me. What are you on now obviously you don't have to tell me. Thank you

When I am taking pregabalin, it is a real shitshow. Waves of dark depression. I have tried many different meds. Now I use 30mg/day (3 10ml doses) medical marijuana sublingual concentrate. I take 800mg ibuprofen 3 times a day with the marijuana (I have chronic pain as well). I have just started on a series of supplements to make certain I am not low on some essential nutrient. I also use the benzodiazapine Xanax to truncate panic attacks (1mg as needed, but this equates to about 1mg/day). Still have plenty of anxiety and depression, but it is much more manageable. I am pleased to have medical marijuana which helps with sleep and anxiety.
