Pregabalin (Lyrica) information, experience, etc. Most underrated high (HANDS DOWN).

MODERATELY-HIGH DOSE EXPERIENCE #1 (450mg): Recently I was prescribed Lyrica. Requested it for off-label anxiety purposes. Friday night I popped 450 mg once I was home and had no need to drive or operate heavy machinery. It hit hard within 45 minutes, peaked at around two hours. It was such a warm, beautiful body high, and had no discernible comedown the next day. Actually woke up Saturday, after three hours sleep (thanks to late afternoon stims Friday), and felt somewhat euphoric compared to how a morning should feel after such a long day and night. Lyrica has a six hour half-life so the drug is mostly eliminated after about ~33 hours. It's now past the 33 hour mark and I've felt no comedown and I've felt rather happy overall (even with a low benzodiazepine supply). The high was something I can't describe too well (kinda like you can't describe a DXM, sid, etc. after trip); just recall properties of the high. It causes mild amnesia, more like a 'brown out' than a 'black out'. I do remember euphoria, more than opiates, benzodiazepines, or stims can provide someone who's had a few run-ins with the opiates/opioids, and has been using stims/benzodiazepines for long periods on and off. It may have been more euphoria than they ever provided; even in the beginning of use. Reminded me of my first time on acid with Klonopin. Just tranquil, feelings of general well-being, less anxiety than benzos can manage to suppress, and I spent the whole night with my headphones on chillin hard AF. I've never been so happy doing nothing. So awake, yet so couch-locked and more than okay with it. It was better than the high from potent OGs, and way better than sativas which potentiate my anxiety. I did mix some things in with it, many of which lessened the high. Next time I will take more Lyrica and avoid the following: hydroxyzine (benzo, opiate potentiator), an anti-convulsant/mood stabilizer, and my ADD stims. Let's be clear that none of these drugs provide me euphoria though, all that happiness was from the Lyrica. I already have a high GABA tolerance (8mg+ Kpin, 75+ mg temmies, half a handle of whiskey, and then fucking for five hours; without blackout), so next time I will add about a third more pregabalin ~700mg total taken in one dose. I added gabapentin in to see how it would affect it. As my first and only experience with pregabalin so far, I'm fairly certain the gabapentin somewhat amplified the visual trippiness and euphoria, but I'll comment on this more after next experience.
LOW DOSE EXPERIENCE #1: So today, Monday, after a two day break from my first experience with Lyrica, I took a reasonably low dose (50mg) of Lyrica around 4:00. It's now 8:00 and I left home to catch the bus to my second residence. Sitting at the bus stop I stared at the concrete on the ground and could see mild visual stimulation from the concretes pattern. It took a while to kick in and I took a few herbal relaxation supplements (valerian root, damania, etc.) along the way to its full effects kicking in. I feel euphoria in my stomach. It's indescribable besides from the butterflies analogy. I'm rather lethargic at the moment and will continue elaborating later. I may be more in love with this than benzodiazepines, and I'm a fucking barrtard to say the least. I know Lyrica tolerance grows rather rapidly so I only plan to take it once a few days a week at 50mg, when T-breaking from temazepam. I have a schedule set up:
Pregabalin schedule: Monday *100 mg at 10:45 am Tuesday,Wednesday: 50 mg at 10:45 am Saturday: *750mg dosed according to -> *150mg at 9:00am, *100mg at 9:30am, *100mg at 10:00am, *100mg at 10:30, *100mg at 11:00, *100mg at 11:30. *Final dose of 100mg at 12:00. Sunday: *no dose (break day) [+1 pregabalin 50mg per week] Total surplus per month: +4 Lyrica 50mg
TLDR; Now, I'll conclude, not many psychs want to prescribe it because it's off-label use isn't widespread. It raises flags with insurance companies when prescribed for the reason of anxiety. It's a Schedule V, with the scheduling of benzodiazepines being IV. It's recreation potential is massive, but I only plan to take a third of my daily dose to keep tolerance away. It's such a beautiful high, and I rate it better than benzos, stims, and opiates/opioids.. Adding gabapentin may potentiate it. Every weekend I'll enjoy one massive dose. Fluffy white powder within caps make for a great insufflation experience as well.
