Earlier this year, I was prescribed #pregabalin for nerve pain. When it was time to taper it down, I had some nasty side-effects, including insomnia, pain and irritability. Happily, these are all things that CBD can help with and, once I'd worked that out, the second half of the gradual withdrawal process was much less bad than the first.
Unlike pregabalin, #CBD is not addictive, and you can just stop taking it whenever you want. So, if it's legal where you are, taking CBD for a few weeks might be a helpful way to smooth out a bumpy landing from pregabalin.
(I had other withdrawal symptoms too, such as restless legs and twitches, but those were short-lived and not too distressing.)
