so my anxiety reared its ugly head 3 weeks ago when i reduced my citalopram too fast.

i felt like i was in crisis couldnt eat sleep think straight, Dr prescribed me pregabalin to calm me down, ive taken it for 5 days and its really helped.

now after reading so many horror stories i want to come off if, does anyone have any experience of this medication?

do i reduce it for a few days then stop? i know my anxiety will pop back up but id rather face it than be more anxious of the medication

thank you
