I think a lyrica+benzo mix sounds good. Have you ever tried supplements? I do old school Orthomolecular, the core of which is: b-100 complex, high dose vitamin c, and high dose either niacin or niacinamide (I've opted for niacinamide).
In high doses, B3 acts kinda sorta like a benzo in the brain. It can potentiate some anticonvulsants and benzos, too. Its also a potent antioxidant. It also...cheap. I now take 6 grams/day, using 1.5 gram sustained release tablets (2 in the AM, 2 in the PM), plus everything else.
I was just thinking...you could do a basic Orthomolecular protocol w/ lyrica, a benzo, or whatever med(s) you end up on, and then maybe you'll get more mileage out of the Rx pills.
