Struggling with Medication Withdrawal

I feel like my brain is so foggy and I have a hard time forming sentences. I want to stop taking it, but if I skip even 1 day i have excruciating nerve pain and withdrawal symptoms.

I'm on 75 morning 75 afternoon and 100 at night. Nerve pain. Works well. Took a few weeks of adjusting dosage.

Taking is multiple spaced out times a day works for me. Not a good idea to stop it abruptly. Must titrate.

I’m on 50mg 3x a day, I take it for Nerve pain, I can’t go up because it interferes with my migraine medicine and causes me to get migraines I have no side effects

Have you tried a lower dose? It helped me… now I do 25mg morning & afternoon and do 75mg at bedtime so the side effects actually help me sleep. The withdrawals are ridiculous!
