> Ed, I have having thoughts of Lyrica. I once had a doc put me up to 900mgs of it, i was able to drive long distances alone on it, did fun things like golfing etc. Giving that one a thought, what do you think? Seems all of the other anticonvulsants are so harsh for me.
Lyrica is known to be effective for generalised anxiety in some cases, at least in the short term. It's not an established treatment for mood disorders though. Non-serious side effects are very common eg. sedation and dizziness. Serious side effects are uncommon so I guess it might be worth a try. Difficult to say. What do you think?
