Hi,
I saw my psychiatrist and I am on pregabalin again. It seems to help but my work memory is destroyed while it effects last. It is horrible to do an exam while this, also, it makes me forget words and how to spell them. I didn't remember how to write my own name..... and got a B (3.0 GPA), I woder if I could have had an A if I hadn't take it that day during that examn. I was thinking on taking it only during night and afternoon, and study all morning. (examns are mostly during the morning). Any advice?

I've gone two long periods in my life where my memory hit a brick wall. 6months on lamictal and a year trying to recover from my psychosis. If you have a med that's effecting your memory... maybe it's not for you. I'm guessing you're taking this for anxiety. I find this a drag because I too wanted to try Lyrica. In the case of lamictal, my brain just needed time to adjust and it went back to working normal again. There are other meds like Gabapentin and Buspar.
When I had memory issues I would hand write everything and read what I had hand written. It was laborious and only gave me mediocre results but writing by hand works best for me. You can also underline and write in the margins of book. You have to be an active thinker. |
