Hey guys hope all are well.
as the title suggests, today is day 8 for me & without jynxing it (touch wood) it has been relatively painless, except Thursday(day5) that was AWFUL, faetal position, bodily fluids exiting both sides, you know the drill.
i have been getting about 5 hours sleep a night, 6 at a push & have energy to go to university mon-thur & work fri-sun as well as do additional cliebts outside of work.
i have been taking 300mg Lyrica a day, on a really bad day 450 along with the odd immodium pill (4 taken total) plus plenty of fluids, food, fruit, veg, vitamins, meetings, meditation & spiritual church. So far so good.
so why the post?
as mentioned i have a very busy schedule and cannot take time off. I am DREADING the lathargy, cant even stand up feeling. I remember it well from my last 2 detoxs.
im fully aware lyrica has its own withdrawal, some say worse than opiods... im wondering whether I should stop now and deal with the remaining pain or, continue for another week and then stop? Any suggestions appreciated.
just for reference, i jumped from approximately 1mg insufflated, taken on and off for 5ish years (more on than off) and am bipolar. I take my zoloft but not my seroquel, it zombies me!!
the only issues i seem to be having withdrawal wise right now are toilet issues, feeling cold & the odd grave shiver if i havent taken a lyrica for a while.
i was planning to take the lyrica up until next Saturday (day14) reducing down to 150, thats the size pills i have, 5then maybe the recommended dose of lope for loo issues if required for an extra couple of days. Does this sound reasonable?
-any imput most grateful. This js my last time. I am DONE!!
oooo also, if its a bad night il also take natural sleep aids, valarian, hops, melatonin etc
