So on the 7th of this month, I went down from 75mg of Lyrica to 50mg.
I am slowly weaning myself off it.
I can't just stop taking it all together because I may get severely depressed/have a seizure.
8th-11th I just felt stoned. I was super tired, slept a lot, lost my appetite and felt lethargic.
12th-13th I realised I was depressed, irritable and apathetic.
Ended up going to my friend's place to have a laugh and watch a terrible movie, this helped a lot.
Later I will have to go from 50mg to 25mg, then 25mg to 0mg.
I might wait for the 'stoned' phase of the first decrease ends and then come of it completely. Hopefully this will only give me one depressed phase to deal with.

This decrease and the next two decreases projected, Green = 'stoned' phase Blue = depressed phase |
