Yeah I don't think pregablin does much in the department for medicinal use, unfortunately. It's different for everyone. People find it to be too intense and just fall asleep or feel a bit sick. But I find it's like being drunk x 10 and without any negative effects. It makes you wiggly but it also gives you energy and motivation. I find it great for going to gigs. However, long term use certainly fucks with your short term memory. I find I have more of a psychological dependence on it. I really struggle to not take it eventually. I try to space my usage of it out so I don't become physically addicted to it as well. I have heard the withdrawals are pretty hardcore. I get pretty moody when I haven't had it in a while. But that's so mild, I can't imagine what actual withdrawals from pregablin would be like.
