Please somebody help me. I’am struggling constantly with anxiety and have regular panic attacks, to the point I can’t even leave my house. My GP is ringing me tomorrow to discuss further action after 3 weeks of being on 200mg sertraline. I’ve tried counselling, therapy and multiple medications for this but nothing has helped for the anxiety side of things. Has anybody got any experience of being prescribed pregablin / lyrica?? I see on the NHS website it is prescribed for this use but my doctor says it’s a “dirty drug with street value”. So just because some people use it to get high, I can’t use it medically??? I understand doctors concern but I am completely desperate at this point and if nothing has changed by Christmas I don’t think I want to live for much longer. Can please someone help me how to explain to my GP that I require medicine like this as it has been way too long suffering day in day out. I don’t even know that it’s going to work but it’s worth a try right?? It must be better than constantly suffering and feeling sick due to anxiety. Any help would be appreciated. Xx
