Hi everyone!
I know I am on a lot of medicine (and some herbs.)
I take Wellbutrin (300 XL mg), zoloft (25 mg), klonopin (1 mg x 2), dextroamphetamine ER capsules (15 mg x 3), dextroamphetamine tablets (15 mg) and Provigil (200mg x 2.)
Yet, I am somewhat accustomed to all them. Lyrica (150mg x 4), however, is weird. I stopped it because I thought it affected my memory. It did. But without it, I felt like I usually do... rather listless and moody and solitary and quiet. I decided, despite the mild memory problems, that I felt so much more outgoing and motivated that I could learn to keep lists,
What is going on however? At work, without Lyrica, I can go many nights without conversing very much. On Lyrica, I just chatter and chatter and say anything that pops into my head. It is kinda of fun. Still, I am much less attentive to what I am supposed to focus upon. My attention just flutters about. I've also noticed I am more impulsive about spending (and that was bad enough already.)
I shall continue with it (unless I begin to itch after three months like I did on its older sister drug, neurontin.)
Anyone else found that Lyrica changed their behavior, made them talk alot, etc...
Obviously, I take prescibed speed for excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS.) Is Lyrica interacting with my stimulant?
Chatter, Chatter, I could probably keep asking questions and making observations but I will stop... but it so hard. Why does Lyrica do this to me? Any ideas?
River.
