Lyrica for withdrawals

I have been reading on the Internet alot about narcotic withdrawals. I read that lyrica can help with the withdrawals. I was wondering if anyone here has used it for withdrawals? Did it help? What symptoms did it help? The naseousness, diarrhea, ??

I was already on lyrica and I have found that if I've having a very bad day I can take an extra lyrica and it does help.  It seems to help with the anxiety.
