Tramadol

[99 Luftballons]

Tramadol WD are the worst. I used them for a week for a broken foot and wanted to die when I was done. The best WD cheap fix for me is Poppy Seed Tea. I buy unwashed seeds by the pound for $2.50 and ALL WD's go away for 24rs. TASTE LIKE Johnny Cochran's ball sack but you fell better ASAP.

Would that be Johnny's ball sack pre or post mortum? Hey, a guy has to have his standards!

You know, I used to do dope, but poppy seed tea actually scares me. I'm sure that I'd be the unlucky one who gets that batch that is uber-strong and ODs. Then my friends are all laughing at my dumbass at my funeral.

"did you hear it was poppy seeds?"

"what a loser. I heard he was snorting the bagels at the end."

I got a huge box of pods 12 years ago, Turkish Giants, before they were regulated and weak. The tea knocked me on my ass! I couldn't believe it! Such a distinct feeling too, not like any other opiate. I would do anything to get that feeling back again, even lick some dead guy's balls.

You're such a sick bastard SS, but that's just a part of your unique charm! LOL

Wow, I grow poppies every spring and all I require as payment for my crop is a handjob...

Seriously though, I think it's important to grow them if you can, because the pods you can order nowadays are overpriced crap. The seed tea is hit or miss, if you're afraid of it just sip it slowly. I have found the tea can take a while to kick in, so give it time.

That's so cool that you grow your own pods. I'm jealous. I love gardening and I love getting high. They have to be some complicated and temperamental plants to grow. You must have a good technique.

One of the most beautiful botanic experiences in life is gently slicing the outside of a pod and letting it weep black tar...I wanna cry right now.

It's not tar, it's latex ya dingus!

I love it. I want to buy a house with a white picket fence and live there with it happily ever-after :wub:

Just spent a night and a half in hospital from over dosing on Tramadol. Still feel like death is upon me.

Was about 5 months clean from that shit. Will be throwing about 1000 pills into the trash can momentarily. Screw trying to keep them for a rainy day when I might legitimately need them.

Never have felt so sick in my life. And its not getting much better as I lay in this doctors officer with the intravenous hooked up to me.

This was the first and last time this shall happen.

What a nice b-day present for my 3 year old son, eh?

Loser

I read up on that stuff after I ran out of an online script that didn't do shit for me. I was throwing down 20 pills per night. I didn't sleep for two months, maybe a wink with horrifying dream, but mostly up. My anxiety was horrible, I paced around the house most of the day as I was unemployed at the time, and I thought part of my brain was in contact with aliens who wanted to test my will for their own entertainment. After one month of sleepless nights, I figured I could cure this with an economy sized bottle of quick release Tylenol. While later, after the hospital and psych ward, I wanted a more comfortable method, so I bought Valium in bulk. I tseted them for legitimacy by taking 200mg. It was wonderful and I slept, then I slept the next night, and every night after only using a 30mg maintenance dose. After it was gone, I no longer had the WD's. I did WD from the benzo's bc I'm a former addict; But I even slept during them. I've been through a six month benzo withrawal, it does NOT compare with Tramodol WD's. There is a website somewhere where people post their horror stories. I should have read them before buying that nasty drug.

Thanks for your information, Soldier.

Just a little confused as my brain has not returned to normal yet.

As in your case, are you saying that the WD effects from Tramadol are worse then benzos?

I've many times suffered the terrible WD effects from Trams, but have never tried to totally come off of benzos as I figured it would not be a problem.

However, your case my be different.

This time I merely overdosed after a 5 months long sobriety. So the WD effects won't last long.

Yes, they are much worse than my experiences of running out of benzos that span 5 years.

To be technical, benzo withdrawal consists of a decrease in GABA and brain nerves going nuts. GABA is a pretty simple neurotransmitter (NT). Now with Tramadol, you're screwing with two very complex and not totally understood NT's Serotonin and Dopamine. When these guys get depleted or deprived a LOT of brain function gets a little screwed up. So you get to feel some complex effects that you don't get on simple benzo withdrawal. I never had the strange thoughts or perceptions that I had during Benzo WD like I had with the Tramadol experiences (2), I could also sleep and looked forward to that all day. So in my opinion, being nervous all the time zaps you of your strength. Stopping Tramadol, on the other hand is kind of like having what felt to me like a low to mid intensity bad trip every single day. The stuff that would go through my mind and scare me, the dreams that I would have when I'd get a few minutes of very light sleep tried to zap me of my sanity. And it wasn't lack of sleep. The mindfuck started before the WD really kicked in. And don't underestimate the strength and intensity of my benzo WD's, especially when I'd get them after a binge, and I binge pretty hard.

I keep reading your post and editing. Why isn't your brain back to normal yet? I think the more times you go through it, the worse it gets. You have to remember that the brain is notoriously slow in repairing or balancing itself. Maybe some L-Tyrosine for dopamine and some 5-HTP for the serotonin will accelerate that process.

And good luck handling your situation, I'll be thinking about you, I don't pray, so I say "thinking"

Many thanks again for your informative post, Soldier. Unlike the past, when I used Tramadol, I never suffered a seizure or what they call 'Serotonin Syndrome'. I could swallow between 12-20 50mg pills a day (within a three hour span) for months on end, and be OK. That is until I decided to stop. Then it would be living HELL for weeks upon end, having no sense of balance, patience, or ability to figure out the most simplest of things without feeling majorly frazzled and depressed upon belief.

Eventually, I found the right SSRI after many months on and off of different ones trying to adjust to the right one which could help decrease the withdrawal time and replenish the serotonin needed to hopefully kick Tramadol for good.

But as you probably know Soldier, and any others who have mucked about with that med, just when you think you have it beat and will NEVER use it again, 3 months, 6 months, or a year or two down the road it pulls you in again, as it's done to me so very often.

The brain fog I'm suffering from today is due to the mix of meds the hospital had me on, numerous injections, and the lack of sleep coupled with a pounding migraine headache that no med seems to be taking away. Although, I do feel 90% better than I did this morning. So time does heal.

Anyways, over 1000 capsules are in the trash can outside. Not an F'n chance in hell will I be jumpin' in that dumpster to get them out.

Feel free and of my DBG friends to help yourselves, most are still in their blister packs and good until 2015.

And thanks again Soldier. I don't pray either, so your "thoughts" and time you sent responding to my posts alone have shown me you're a much better/nicer guy than I initially came to believe a week or so back.

Consider us friends. Name added.

@Slammer: I just read this thread, not sure how I missed it earlier, and I DO pray...probably not like most do, and certainly not like what you see on TBN - just know that I'm sending you powerful angels and pure white light to surround you today! And I'll send it as long as you need it...

Just know that there are many here besides me who sincerely care about you and want you to be well!

Please take care...

FG

Slammer, man, just read this...hope you're ok. How big was the dose that put you in the hospital? Take care of yourself!

About 15 50mg capsules and 6 200mg SR tablets. With my morning SSRI. That's what did it to me, like never before.

God in heaven. I'm sorry really. Be well and careful. Easier said than done. Please your son would never be the same without Dad. Never in my life did I ever feel the pain of those on the Tram train. You have opened my eyes to something although helpful for pain, something I should simply stay away from with my horribly addictive personality.
