I’m very, very sorry for all the suffering you’ve been through. I wish you the best in your healing. I’m exhausted from trying to help educate others in the safe discontinuation of benzos. So many get CT’d and continue to add more meds, which can be just as bad as the benzos to ease symptoms of withdrawal or CT. If they help, good for you. If not, there is medically sound help out there if one looks beyond addiction centers. You’ll find that, of course, benzos help in the short run or maybe even years for others, but eventually tolerance hits.

Best to you.

Thank you very much .. yrs .. I honestly thought I’m on these for life . If I can’t go without after trying the tapering ( twice ) then I was destined to struggle to keep my dosage at 1.5 per day and like you said , is true .,I too had hit tolerance so would have to sneak an extra one here and there … at the end of my (30) day refill it was murder! I had only a few and I just had to take them very sparingly and still went through wds .. so this is one reason I do not want to stay on pregabalin any longer than I absolutely have to .. I don’t want another drug to replace this one .. I would rather put up with the shingles nerve pain . At least that’s physical.. the mental torture game is like someone throwing you into the gates of hell , best way I can describe it . Here I am this morning , going out …. Up over 2 hrs now and no sign of a wd. I just took my one pregabalin an hour ago but didn’t have a craving for it .. it’s only been 3 weeks ..I sure hope when they start to taper me off of the pregabalin..?that will be it … done.! Cross your fingers for me and I’ll keep you updated …Thanks again …. Just wanted to put this out there in case someone else may want to talk to their dr about pregabalin.. I stumbled upon it working .. pharmacy told me that they’ve never seen it just replacing clonazepam… it’s usually used as a tapering method though ..
