The LYRICA (pregabalin) Mega Thread

Not open for further replies.
man, sex on lyrica is not cool for me. i cant get fully hard and cant come at all. im not sure why you guys are having different experiences. i am 30 though, maybe its just that im not an overly sexed 20 yr old anymore....wait that makes no sense. im just as horny as i ever was.

this is the only thing that bugs me. i stopped my lexapro and literally came within 3 mins two dif times. when i take 450mg of lyrica though i cant come at all. 150mg is fine, doesnt affect my performance at all. oh well.
 
Sweet, I have 9000mg to play with. :)

Anyone find to get real euphoria you need a few drinks? After 1200-1800mg and 5 drinks it feels like I'm floating or flying around.
 
I have read that lyrica is just a slightly more potent drug than gabapentin aka neurontin.
 
I'm no Casanova in the sex category but when my wife performs "administrative duties" I have a great time.

I like being lazy.
 
well well well. so much to update.

i found that sex on lyrica is FUCKING AWESOME. i just had to find the right dose. 750mg was so fucking intense. everything felt so so so sensual, tactile senses were incredibly heightened. my orgasm was so intense i almost cried. i felt like i did shot of heroin for like 1hr afterwards. i was literally nodding off on the toilet.

this shit potentiates my suboxone like crazy. i actually get a rush off it now! its awesome.

just taking 1 150mg cap in the morning makes me feel soooooo good. no anxiety and TONS of energy. ive never been more productive.

at night i sleep like a baby too.

my mood is heavenly. ive never felt this good in my life. this is from 1 tablet in the morning.

i did find that this stuff works much better orally. i was using it IV with my suboxone for a while and im not sure why, but i am more than sure that PO is far superior.

this is the drug ive been looking for my entire life. im going to sound like a fag, but if i looked up panacea in the dictionary i would find a picture of a lovley 300mg capsule.

here is to my 10ft boner with a cheeseburger at the end of it. huzzah!
 
What is all the hype about lyrica!??! Its neurontin times 2!!1
 
So recently I just received another prescription for pregabalin! I was verry excited when I had hard this. :D After being off Lyrica (pregabalin) for just over 4 months now.

Now before I WAS on maximum daily dosage (600mg/day) a long with my heavy benzo habit and Oxycodone habit, so it was really hard for me to tell if the Lyrica was helping me or or not. Sorry guys I just wanted to point out here at all that I am not dicksizing my old abit, no I am NOT proud of it one bit, it has the stupidest I thing ever did. 8(

I was put it on it due to GAD reasons in the first place I believe. Currently I am on 75mg BID, which is a pretty good dose, but still not optimal enough for me, I think the perfect dosage for me would be somehwere between 300mg - 450mg/day. My doctor is taking me up slow with this, and this time I am on it is because I have some type of 'tactile neuropathy sensitivity to touch' from too much drug use 'possibly' or 'possible just something else that I am waiting to discover in my MRI whenever I have my chance to get once. Since I am in Canada here, yes most procedures and testing is free but they have waiting lists up to 2 years long or more for some things, so to me, Canada needs smoke working on their healthcare system. Anyways, After I had detoxed from opioids (600mg Oxycodone daily habit (ORALLY) and Heavy benzodiazepine habit - you name it, pretty much every one, most common one was probably Ativan or Clonazepam though. I'm talking taking pretty extreme doses here a long with that 600mg Lyrica dose I was prescribed before, and a long with my non prescribed Oxycodone killer dosing which was quite stupid of me.

Lots of days, even weeks are a fog to me still and had lost several jobs because I woould be taking 12mg's of lorazepam (Ativan) per day a long with 60mg Flurazepam, and then Zopiclone+Alprazolam to sleep at night. This went on for quite awhile and it makes me sick now that I think about it. I still hadly remember much it - just very tragic moments here and there.

So to say now, I am currently clean just over 7 months it looks like :D Except for the odd drinking, GHB use here and there, and also dabbling in a little bit of Oxy (Sometimes).

These tactile sensations of neuropathy is why I got put back on Lyrica for this, but I guess it could also be a pinched nerve ending in my spine hence why I am awaiting this MRI. I have had about 3-4 blood tests since i've been, and everything has came back normal. I even was freaking out so much I had my AM Cortisol levels checked, and that was normal.

So the 75mg/2x Lyrica a day does help quite somewhat with these 'tactile chilly feelings up and down m arms and my shoulders, but lots of the times I am taking more because I need more relif, so I will take some days even up 750mg/day - wich I know is pretty stupid me, but that for sure will kill those tactile sensations although that dosage does bring about much more side effects which can be unpleasant we well. :\

I am very glad Pfizer invented Lyrica, as it is a great option for some us pain sufferes, especially with Fibromyalgia, or different types of nerve pain. It is EXTREMELY pricey for me, as I am not quite yet working and its not covered in my Province. I have been having a hard time finding a job as of lately. I have been out of my Lyrica prescription for a little over a week and a a half now, and don't see my doctor for more until sometime some week. I am really hoping he will increase my dosage too 150mg/x2 Lyrica per day. ;)

just a quick inquiry here folks
Are there any other bluelighters than can relate to the 'tactile neuropathy/ crawling out of your skin feeling' and you or somebody you know has been put on Lyrica or another such med of?
Any help would be so much appreciated guys. Its a tough road out there, but if we all still together and help us out, we can make it for sure. BTW - Sorry for the long post!
 
lyrica gets you trough every day.
it destroys almost every comedown
its like a legal light version of ghb only longer lasting and more smooth out.

only down side lyrica had its own comedown.
 
fuck shit fuck shit fuuuuuuuuuck. im so happy!!!! my god this shit has improved my quality of life significantly. i can smile and laugh, i can make eye contact. its beautiful. everything i ever wanted out of a medication. ive been searching for years trying everything from prozac to heroin. this shit is my panacea.

150mg a day is all i need to feel great. sex is bette, food is better, life is better. NO MORE ANXIETY. FUUUUUUCK THAT SHIT.

i took 750mg today as its saturday and my rec dose day. ill have a drink or 2 tonight and be floating.

jamming the FUCK out right now to RJD2, just feeling like a god. i have my suboxone too. i can shoot like a 1mg chip and get a rush off it. i start nodding a bit and smoke a cig. add a little beer and im in heaven. so simple yet so wonderful.

i DO respect the drug though. i dont take it sunday at all and i try not to take more than 150mg a day during the work week. i plan to take a few days off at the end of the month too to bring tolerance down. there is NO way im going to let tolerance get in the way of how helpful this shit is.
 
Help Wanted (quote somewhat answered)

You say sorry for the long post i say sorry for the long quote!!! I dont know how to shorten them.. However I have read in your post that you were on flurazepam.. Be careful with that stuff, it has a huge half life and it builds up in your body. Also it is a partial agonist which causes it to damped your other benzos. And your very last paragraph asks for help on lyrica or any other similar drug to it. Well im prescribed like I said before baclofen and neurontin, I think neurontin being the closest. I was prescribed these medicnes at rehab and am not really sure why. I was withdrawling from benzos and amphetamines. Im not sure which it is for to help. I have read on wikipedia that neurontin in doses of 1200 at night is part of an expensive protocol to get people off amphetamine, and being that it is a gaba-ergic, maybe it is to help with benzo withdrawl. However I am very confused on why I have these meds and how much and why I should take them. So I cant help you but maybe someone can.. Also ones years ago while trying to detox off benzos a doctor prescribed me gabitril. I had no idea what it was, thinking it was just a shitty sissy panzy drug I never took one... Now one of my friends on IRC said its an amazing drug, I am curious in retrospect what it does and if it is any good anymore.. If anyone knows about it please tell me for I will ask my psychiatrist for it on tuesday.. This DR prescribes me also anything. He is the doc that put me on 30mg ir adderall twice a day and 3 2mg clonazepam a day. Im going to get back on those drugs, the adderall for retail purposes and a few for recreational purposes, and the clonazepam because I love it. Now all the hype about lyrica I might try to get some of that, what is the reason i should ask for it? GAD? I just want to make sure it doesnt cancel out the clonazepam. Also I am on effexor xr 75mg, and subutex 24 mg daily. I have read that the effexor is actually a mu agonist, not would the subutex block this? Now out of all of these meds im on, I am experiencing a high volume of akathesia. Anyone have a clue on which med might be causing this? Im a wreck. Help needed!!!!

hey, im back on this thread and high of 600mg lyrica, i've got this little buzz with the motivation and the mood improved, I smile and laugh very easily. =D

The problem is, the tolerance. It rise up sooo fast. Even when I stop for 3 days, doesn't decrease my tolerance.:p

How much time do you need for that?
 
3 days isnt enough to bring your tolerance down? the half life is 6 hrs. 3 days should be fine. try a week. that sucks dude.

try to not get into the trap to up your dosages , yust take a day or 2 off from time to time.

10 months in i still got the mood and motivation increase effect from 300-450 mg a day.
 
i fee like its too good to be true. this shit is so fucking AMAZING. i take only 150mg with my suboxone and i feel GGREAT. no anxiety, superb mood, lots of energy and motivation, and focused better than adderall.

one thing i would like to share is that i received a full monograph in the mail today. riteaid has some patient are program associated with lyrica so they sent it to me. i was reading it and there is a section on recreational use/abuse. they said that the dose of 450mg was administered to subjects that reported a high from it. i would gather that they experimented with other doses as well. i take from it that 450 is the optimal dose for rec use.

hopefully that will help people with questions about dosage. it should be noted that that dose would be for non tolerant persons. it is stated that there is no interaction or cross tolerance with other gabanergic drugs but i would think if you have a tolerance to alcohol, benzos, or ghb you may not get much out of pregablin.

450mg with a couple drinks or maybe 2mg of xanax (or another benzo) would be QUITE enjoyable. just keep this is mind, folks. good day.

post script: i wish i had some weed. its a rainy day and i want to watch movies but i have all this energy! i normally dont smoke pot because it makes me anxious, but i dont think that would happen now that i have this wonderful drug that annihilates anxiety. also, i think pot is good for 3 things and only 3 things. 1 sex 2 watching movies 3 riding a bicycle/rollercoasters/falling(bungee, skydiving, jumping off a cliff into water). it really does make watching a shitty movie fun. wow, i am so clear and focused in a calm way that stims do not allow. my fingers molested the keyboard like i was playing with water. i love this shit. my god.
