  1. Gabapentin, Pregabalin Increasingly Prescribed With Opioids

  2. My #tics related to severe #tourettes have changed since I stopped using #GabAPentin as a way to manage them.

    Before they were subtle, but almost never stopped as they were impossible to fully satisfy. They were smaller movements or twitches that were very frequently.

    I switched to using a higher dose of #Guanfacine which is an #adhd and tic specific medication, and now they come in waves and are more forceful, and harder to contain.

    But I can actually have some peace.

  4. There will always be #drugs as the federal government in the #usa is so slow to react to new problems.

    When they update the #laws of a substance, another one creeps in until it is such a problem it has to be solved.

    Take #kratom and #GabAPentin.

    Drug addicts have known you could abuse those for ages yet it's only now making headlines. Another will show up after those are scheduled.

    It's evidence you can't solve it with brute force. It's a wider problem with #society.

  9. I've had my meds stolen a few times before staying in shelters and group homes.

    I understand it's doctor's jobs to question stuff and make sure the patient really needs something.

    However it does annoy me every time I end up going to an urgent care, or new primary care doctor to refill/replace my medications and they take one look at my mythical dose of #GabAPentin and go "are you really sure you need that much?" and I have to explain why it's that high.

  11. I'm glad I don't have to work or do anything important today.

    I was feeling really slow and loopy all day. Then it occurred to me that I had accidentally taken my morning Gabapentin twice.

    Have you ever taken 1600 mg of #GabAPentin at once? Because I did.

    I'm not a complete zombie.

    But I did try to use my bus pass to unlock the door into my room like 12 times before I realized I needed a real key.

    All because I am a dumbass and moved the alarm by an hour, and left both on.

  13. I just found out that the doctor I had at Soul Housing was lying to me about being on the max dose of #GabAPentin for some reason.

    I was taking 1800 mg a day. Which is a lot. But when you have the kind of nerve damage, and #tourettes motor tics I do, it turns out you can take more if needed.

    I was in genuine pain all the time from muscle spasms and cramps. They REFUSED to up it, or change it.

    I now take 2400 divided into 3 doses.

    I feel MUCH better.

    Also a bit high xD

  20. Why is it that #Ireland has such a problem with illicit production moreover mass distribution of #Gabapentinoid substances such as #Lyrica #pregabalin #gabapentin #neurotin

    #CIA #FBI - Is the plan to replace #fentanyl? Or something like that epidemic, from from a mind-control approach?

    drugsandalcohol.ie/29105/

    Why is there so much of it being produced and trafficed illegally?

    There's something very peculiiar and alarming about it to me.

    1.) "The truth is, as we know it:" It changes the way you think.
    2.) "The truth is, as we know it:" it causes #memoryloss and symptoms resembling #braindamage / #stroke
    3.) "The truth is, as we know it:" it causes #psychosis and #hallucinations

    The truth is, as we know it: pregabalin
    * makes a subject #pliable and
    * open to #suggestion in terms of
    * #interrogation

    Alarming? Why is it really allowed to be #distributed as it is?

  24. #CIA
    The notion crossed my mind the other day, and the more I consider it, the more I find it #remarkable

    People who study #SavantSyndrome #Savant should ask me some questions. Here's why (as the AI's say):
    Because I think #pregaballin #Lyrica gave me brain damage. However, I think there may be some enhancement. Sadly, whatever that enhancement may be, the rest of the damage seems to outweigh it.

    Remarkable also, that it's not the first time this happened to me.
    #gabapentin

    #scientists and #psychiatry should study it. #CIA #FBI reach out to me if you'd like.

    This is my attempt to communicate important life changing information to my primary care physician, of the Geisinger Family Health Network, in State College, Pennsylvania, 16803. In JULY 2024.
    I'm still waiting for his reply.

    My healthcare professionals, and #Pfizer have caused me brain damage by prescribing, and ENCOURAGING me to continue taking it despite my report of hallucinations and psychosis.

    Following is an example of what promoting #Lyrica looks like:
