It's difficult living everyday in pain and my psychiatrist is tapering me too fast went from 600mg to 400mg after 2yrs then to 300mg for 6 months. Basically I did it own my own now with the doctors advice went from 300 to 200 in a month and now I'm withdrawaling . Tried to just go back up to 250 after 2 weeks but I'm still sick

Feeling okay. No specific symptoms.
Finally got ahold of my psychiatrist today , I was throwing up a lot last night. I have to assume it's from trying to get off Lyrica and having the psychiatrist doing it too fast. So now I'm taking 250 today and I do feel better although feeling defeated.
Feeling very bad. Been having bouts of nausea, anxiety, insomnia, headache, irritability, fatigue, crying spells, muscle aches, gi upset, and sweating.
