Lyrica made me so confused and spaced out. I had every side effect that comes with this horrible drug. It helped a bit which is frustrating because it would be a great drug if it didn't make you feel like you were drunk and make you gain 40 pounds in just a short time.

I can't function without it. I know it makes me depressed and I still think it makes me suicidal. It works most of the time and I really shouldn't be on it but....I'm scared to go off it.

I just started on Lyrica, July 30, 2012. I take one 75 mg pill at night, and it makes me feel groggy in the mornings. I am still in pain.
