Hello @ronmason, welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. I'm sure you are not alone in being scared of what happens when you stop taking the drug. Is it Lyrica that you are taking? I did see a Co-Pay Savings Card for eligible patients on the Lyrica website here that may help:

Don’t take Lyrica it takes over your neurotransmitters and when you come off of it the withdrawal puts you into a tail spin. It’s been 8 months since I’ve come off it and I’m still suffering with severe anxiety from morning until I go to bed. It put me in a state of panic anxiety and agoraphobia
