Bye Venlafaxine (Lustral) & a little update
A long overdue update for you all to let you know what’s been going on with me. Not taking Venlafaxine (Lustral) anymore & tapered down on my Pregabalin. Not looking forward to Xmas, celebrated my birthday & a few other things 😊

Coping (just 😬) but planning to get motivated 😊

It’s been a rough few months and my motivation to do anything at all has been zero. I know I can’t go on like this so I’m making small changes to try and make an impact on my overall well-being.

A short video to be honest with you all about taking an extra dose of my Pregabalin. I felt I needed to and it meant I was able to go about my day without crippling anxiety. One day at a time.

    I relate precisely with your symptoms of Lyrica, especially the disinterest and zero motivation to do the usual tasks. This is whilst on the drug. The bigger truth is what I’m like when coming off of it - the withdrawals are a living hell for me. All the best with it.

    Bro have you considered that you feel spaced out because you take 2 different drugs ? Codeine and pregabalin ? Lyrica boosts any opioids and opiates so no wonder you feel high as shit, after a while you will only feel normal and thaths when u know ur addicted.

Pfizer were prosecuted for advertising this poison as a painkiller and fined shit loads .. the company that says safe and effective is one of the biggest rogue pharmaceutical companies in the world for profit… paying the biggest ever fines around 3 billion dollars… do the research… I’m still tapering off this after 2 years and nearly getting there …. Also the drug is killing people in UK and on the rise in the street market…. Belfast has the worst epidemic of it…. The drug from hell courtesy from Pfizer criminals

    Does Pregabalin work immediately? I have a 2 week prescription, but I'm scared to take it. I've spent 20+ years on clonazepam, and after 2 failed tapering attempts, I'm scared to death of more pills. I'm also taking 40mg of fluoxetine, which has always worked for me, but this past year, it stopped working almost completely.

    Hello, I have been watching some of your videos about pregabalin, very helpful so thank u so much. I have been suffering with anxiety for years and have now been prescribed them as cannot take ssri's and mirtazaphine didnt do much. I am a bit anxious about taking pregabalin as seen some negative reviews. I only want to take a lower dose as dont want to put up with all the side effects for too long such as constipation and dry mouth. I only want to take this temporarily just to see me through for a while, any further advice would be great, thank u once again.

    This brings back too many bad memories. I went through xanax withdrawal 18 months ago. The huge panic attacks like your chest is in a vice getting tighter and tighter. I went 5 nights without a wink of sleep. It was pure torture and I would never touch this poison again. I'm guessing if you are still toying with this drug even if is only once or twice a week then the drug will win every single time. It creeps back up on you next thing you can't get through a day without it again. I hope I am wrong but I do hope you are in a better place and if you have to try again then do try again. Just be aware of kindling as I withdrew 3 times before I got off it and the 3rd withdrawal was a monster compared to the first two times. Take care of yourself thanks for the video.
