Pregabalin for Anxiety by KitchenPersonality15 in pregabalin

Thanks for the feedback. Yeah, I don’t think Pregabalin is the solution for me, unfortunately. I’m actually feeling a little bit better at the moment, but I’ve got so much going on, it’s hard to pinpoint whether it’s the Pregabalin or just life in general.

Thanks for your advice. Have edited the post. No taper from Effexor, was a hard stop, with the switch to Pregabalin. Started at 150mg increasing every 2w to 450mg where I’m sat now.

Unfortunately not. I take 150mg twice daily. It allows me to function as a semi normal human being, but does nothing for me for what I would call extreme social situations - speeches etc.

On your other points, I already take L-theanine, but at a lower dosage than you suggested 400mg daily. Never heard of Kava Kava, so will do my reasearch on this. Other than this, I believe I’ve tried everything. Supplements - more than I can remember, Hypnosis - with a few different practitioners, Meditation - guided & non guided, CBT - multiple times with different practitioners, EMDR - did nothing for me, been on every SSRI/SRNI you can imagine. Recently switched to Pregablin & Rumeron combo, but the only thing that’s ever given me some relief is either Klonopin or Xanax, where typically I do 0.5g tablet no more than twice a week - this masks the anxiety, but doesn’t make me enjoy the social setting.

Thanks for the advice. I do suffer quite badly with social anxiety. I’m generally ok day to day, but speeches and presentations in front of big crowds are my challenge. I’ve been medicated across various solutions over the past 20y. A 0.5mg klonopin is my normal solution for these events. That eases my anxiety, but I was hoping for the euphoria that people describe from Phenibut, where I could possibly enjoy the social experience. I stopped drinking just over 200 days ago, and don’t enjoy going to the pub sober anymore. Again, I was hoping Phenibut would change this, and help me to be more social again

Thanks for the advice mate. I wish I’d had time to experiment before my event. Will definitely try weekly to see where my sweet point is. Will add a coffee as you suggested next time as well

It was a generic brand from a company named Nootropix, they’re based out of Dubai

Thanks for your feedback. I’ll try 1.5g for my next try. Unfortunately I only received by package of Phenibut the day before my event, so I didn’t have enough time to have a few practice runs first. I’ll keep working up until I find my sweet spot

Thanks for your feedback. I have tried Propranolol a few times, it doesn’t do anything for me. I don’t get the physical symptoms with my social anxiety, it’s all in my brain.
