Lyrica acts on some of the same pathways as GBH, gabapentin and many antidepressants. My own mum discovered she couldn’t take the drug. However, most likely these are just out and out drug reactions that a few folks just go thru like yourself.
The psychotic reactions I’m talking about occur across the wide range of antidepressants, not just SSRI’s.(these psychotic effects or enhanced feelings of suicide was also noted with the old tricyclics and MAO’s as well. These are thought to be related to the emotional “mood lifting or elevating effects of the drugs”.) That is why some anti-depressants are also being paired with or designed chemically with anti-psychotic drugs or elements so that while the depression lifts, one does not become psychotic at the same time!
all of which begs the question........ at what age was he diagnosed as ADD?
All I know is it scared the hell out of me and my family.
Anyone who knows me will tell you I’m the most easy going, laid back guy they know. The term they used was Dr. Jeckyll, Mr. Hyde.
