lowkey var makes me look unhealthy as fuck and extremely sickly but no one else seems to report that effect. it's also not in my head as when i was running var i would always feel sick/get sniffly and even got a 103 F fever after running only 20 mg for two weeks straight. even my friend said i looked awful during that week the following week :forcedsmile:

Pregabalin makes your eyelids droop because it binds to those voltage-gated calcium channels and dials down neurotransmitter release, which subtly relaxes the levator muscle responsible for holding your upper lids up. It's basically the same mechanism that helps with nerve pain but ends up over-relaxing the fine muscles around the eyes in some people, especially at higher doses or if you're sensitive.


To fix it, try dropping your dose a bit or shifting most of it to right before bed so the peak hits while you're sleeping. Cold compresses on the eyes help tighten things up temporarily, and avoiding booze or other downers makes it way less noticeable. Usually settles once your body adjusts or you tweak the timing/dose.

yeah i mean sublingually its a bit better but it still happens

its whatever might be because my test dose is too high and just too much CNS stimulation idk but next cycle i'll retry

wishing u the best though

I felt the same effect, i just have a habit of fixing eye posture to kind of negate it.
