Thinking of talking to doctor about stopping pregabalin: POLL

There is a lot of controversy regarding pregabalin in the uk. Is has been reclassified as a scheduled drug.

Am not sure if it is still helping my anxiety or not. It has definitely put some weight on me.

I think maybe the only way to see if my it is helping the anxiety is to try coming off it (under doctor guidance).

Do you think it is worth the risk to try coming off it or should I not rock the boat?

I voted for “try coming off it”. But as anxiety triggers all sorts of bad stuff for you , you should have a good plan in place.
