An update on my Lyrica withdrawal.
The Good: My memory is getting better slowly.'
I do not feel like another visit to an emergency hospital .
The Bad: I am so irritable and my feet are burning . I find i need lots of quiet. When i take my daily dose, that edginess stops
The Ugly: I shake and shiver.
It is a rollercoaster.
I have moments where my mind is calm.
But other times when i have intense brain fog . Things seem surreal, i guess like a spaced out feeling.
Lyrica give me brain fog and memory loss, which is why i want to stop it.' Withdrawal is intensifiying those side effects.
I actually crave my next dose.

I hope my updates can help others x.

@wizzywinkles3,
I feel your pain in some measure. As I tapered from many years of benzo use and it was pure hell. I still have bouts of nausea and wondered what that was like for you? What seemed to help with your nausea?
Do you think, given your current symptoms, that you are tapering too fast or current dose should increase some?
Hang in there. It will get better.
