Tramadol

Well here's day II for me on my journey to rid myself of Tramadol. I can definately feel it today and have much less energy and pep. I don't feel like doing anything, and even watching movies I use to love can't hold my attention. I've got the 3 pills of tramadol spaced out every six hours now, the diazapam with the first and last dose of the day so I can sleep. No Ro***s any more. Man, am I waiting till I can take that next pill, the second of the day. I hope it relieves this restlessness that I am feeling. The sweats have started, I drink a cup of tea and I start sweating like I'm in a Mississippi swamp.

The good is that I feel like my eyesight is clearer but that could be my imagination. It's going to be hard going to work tomorrow without the drug in me and my joints are starting to ache a little. Adjusting 230lbs dudes is not going to be fun with aching shoulders and wrists. Besides I'm not feeling talkative at all and I think that conversation will be strained and forced which is bad because people can feel it. You can't fake cheerfulness. I have all the pills in a drawer in my house and I looked at them today. I thought if I only took this many then I'd be done feeling like this but instead I laughed at them, I am in charge! You scumbag pills don't have control over me, I can touch you, and count you, and I will not break down and take any!

Ha, it is only day II

Frankie Girl,

Good to have your input and the kind way it was delivered too. It means something to both of us I'm sure.

Both Mr. Ditch and I are glad to have any accompanying story join in with ours, so we will be here with our own personal trials whenever you decide it's time.

And to all others, don't let it be wrongfully assumed that we look down on anyone on this site as having a lack of moral principles or willpower. Just because we have decided to change our behavior only affects us, and writing about the difficulties helps because quitting while still leading a productive life is hard.

Just a quickie (ok nobody wants a quickie from me)

To you @FrankieGirl, best wishes to you and believe you will reach that place



To you @YoungH, same I know you will get there,



To you @Ditch, although most likely content in that ditch of yours, hell I know I would be too. You get better also you potty mouth you. I just cant think of the right words but....................................................Kind soul. Possible a bit left of center (like I) In this world would you want to be anything other



My story is not that similar but friends along the lines. We all have our demons. We have to remember that there are things to live for and people though we might not realize, do care. You would be surprised to know sometimes people that said they never for even 20 ago. I doubt highly we have not made an impression on someone in that way.



Best of luck to you all.

Tramadol is one of those drugs that affects people very differently. Some are fine coming off the drug cold turkey and other individuals have terrible withdrawals. The problem is that tramadol is a very "dirty" drug, so it can affect serotonin reuptake, norepinephrine reuptake and the mu-opioid receptor. I think this drug is a greater danger than physicians anticipate as it is well known that coming off of certain SSRIs can cause terrible withdrawals as well as coming off of opiates--double whammy. If anyone does take tramadol, they should very gradually taper off as you would an SSRI/opiate. For example, if you take 6/day, for the next week take 5/day, then 4/day the following week, etc. Even then some people will have a very difficult time. What you can do is pair this with high dosing of loperamide to help for opiate withdrawals if necessary. Anyhow, that's my 2 cents.

 
Tramadol really doesn't give me much of anything other than a pain reliever. I don't get any buzz or anything else either. Works great for my RLS. Altough taking this with Lexapro everyone says my mood is a lot better.

Success for you then. That's good. You have found a pharmaceutical solution.

 
Tramadol is an excellent pain reliever if used responsibly and for a short period of time. It worked wonders while I got a full back tattoo done the traditional style in Thailand using a mallet and a bamboo stick with a sharpened point on the end. It took a whole month, almost everyday in extreme pain.

Unfortunately I started to abuse it and continue using it well after my tattoo was finished because I loved the feeling it gave me. It became part of my daily life.

If you don't have an addictive personality, and can control yourself, then by all means Tramadol is wonderful for pain management.

Can someone please inform me on what Tramadol retard is? Some special brand perhaps?

anybody feel free to correct me if i am wrong. from what i have found any med that is 'retard' is an extended or time release.

 
I get severe back pain at irregular intervals and get prescriptions for tramadol, codein and Ibuprofen to combat the pain. For me, neither codein nor tramadol work as a "painkiller". I'm aware of the pain all the time but i just don't care about because codein in particular gives me such a great feeling. As I prefer codein to tramadol in all needs I never felt craving for tramadol. In regard to codein its a lot harder to withstand. The only solution for me is to do not keep codein at home because I lose sight of it.

I'm sure that ibuprofen won't help you in extreme pain but for me it is a very effective and reliable pain killer and in addition I can take it at work as I can't concentrate on opiates. Although I started to use Ibuprofen to relieve the pain I continued to take codein because of its euphoric effects and trouble-free repeat prescriptions.

 
Ibuprofen is classed as a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug or NSAID. It works by acting on a group of compounds called prostaglandins.

Prostaglandins are sometimes called local hormones because they act close to where they are produced rather than all over the body. They have a remarkably wide range of effects. One of their actions is to cause inflammation.

Inflammation

When a part of the body is injured, protective mechanisms go into action. White blood cells accumulate at the site of the injury, and this causes swelling, heat, redness, loss of function, fever and pain - together called inflammation.

All these effects are potentially beneficial. Swelling can help to immobilise injured joints, heat and increased blood flow promote healing, and pain alerts the injured person that there is a problem (so that he or she will quickly remove their hand from a hot stove, for example, to prevent further injury). However, they can often be too much of a good thing - once we know we are injured, the pain no longer has a function and we wish to be rid if it; often the inflammatory response is too powerful and can do more harm than good.

Ask your Doctor nicely for Dihydracodeine. Strong enough for my broken leg...whilst it was mending.

I'm not and never will be a Doctor so use your mind. It worked for me.

60mg (2x30mg) every 4-6 hours

Trust me DHC.

Thanks for the information. Nevertheless there is no way to avoid NSAID medications as I only get codein in combination with diclofenac as a FDC.

@MVT

I will ask for DHC when I have a chance for it. I think it is the strongest opioide which isn't controlled by narcotic laws, so it should be possible to switch from codein to dhc.

 
I got a tramadol prescription for lower back pain and it works pretty well as a pain killer. I don't get any loopy feeling from it at all, but I do seem to be in a great mood (no buzz at all, just a happy/content feeling).

I usually take no more than 100 mg once a day, but lately have started taking 200 mg (100 in morning, 100 in afternoon). Reading this thread has scared me a bit. Anyone know how quickly addiction hits with this med? I've skipped a day here and there, but for the most part have been using this daily for almost three weeks.

 
Trams are funny....I'm not a fan of them, but they do work....some background: I had a car accident a few years ago that left me with two pretty messed up discs in my back. Since I live in the land that loves to start wars against concepts (terror, drugs, etc), tramadol was given to me. Does it relieve pain? Kinda... Does it give one a buzz? Only at first, in my experience. Now I take them and feel distinctly like I'm on an SSRI (I battled depression and still do, and yes I know tramadol is a SNRI). A floating feeling not at all like a true opiate. But am I still in pain? God yes. Sometimes getting out of bed is a nightmare. I think trams will go the way of barbiturates and quaaludes....drugs that are phased out because the bad (seizures, etc) outweigh the good.

This is only my opinion, of course.

 
Tramadol works wonders for me as a pain break-thru booster.

Tramadol helps me survive and maintain a good relationship with my DOC.

PRICELESS, when I do need his understanding, less any seeking suspicion.

 
Schumer that's interesting that you find Tramadol good as a break-through med. I always found it took about an hour to feel the effects.

  1. MorfineOrfan @ MorfineOrfan: @nameofuser11 its not just 7/mgm/psuedo and sr, the dea has a huge list of compounds its banning with this ban. Odsmt is one, all the orphines and a ton more.
  2. MrFuszy @ MrFuszy: Lole onion sites?
  3. MrFuszy @ MrFuszy: @eiffraffca what ya mean
  4. R @ Riffraffca: Has anyone used and markets on the Dark Web?
  5. st1ckyf1ng4z @ st1ckyf1ng4z: @nameofuser11 Lol, happens to the best of us my friend. I think plain leaf will remain pretty easy to access, and prices shouldn’t fluctuate too much. Read up on how to use btc if you don’t know already. It’s not rocket science :)
  6. nameofuser11 @ nameofuser11: I donated and I forgot how to get the password. I am a moron. Don't worry I have no plans on becoming a vendor with my stupidity
  7. nameofuser11 @ nameofuser11: @st1ckyf1ng4z you're right of course. But being able to purchase with a debit card on a clearnet site with quality labs and low prices will be gone.
  8. st1ckyf1ng4z @ st1ckyf1ng4z: Especially if they’re using mitragynine as the parent alk to make substitutes. I think it will affect plain leaf too at the very least it will not be as available as it’s been.
  9. st1ckyf1ng4z @ st1ckyf1ng4z: @MorfineOrfan @nameofuser11 That’s wild. But basic supply/demand tho, right? In my area all the leaf has been pulled off shelves,
  10. J @ j00ciiez: It sucks they're banning sr17. It seems to be a holy grail for many ppl.
  11. nameofuser11 @ nameofuser11: To clarify plain leaf kratom is not a part of this ban. Mitragynine might be fine. 7, psuedo,mgm15 and sr1708 are what are on the table to be banned most likely but hopefully just regulated.
  12. MorfineOrfan @ MorfineOrfan: @st1ckyf1ng4z and yes , there are already indole alkoloids with tweaked scaffolding ready to take the place of 7/mgm, all with mitragynine as their parent alkoloid. The game of wack a mole starts the minute 7 is officially banned. Its 2013 K2 all over
  13. st1ckyf1ng4z @ st1ckyf1ng4z: @MorfineOrfan Also, it’s just a matter of time before another alternative pops up on the market anyway….
  14. st1ckyf1ng4z @ st1ckyf1ng4z: @MorfineOrfan I couldn’t agree more, bro. It’s fucked up. I recognize prices will rise, but it will always be available…. Stock up now while you can at least if you’re preferred read is opiates. As an ex-fentanyl addict I won’t ever touch any of that shit again. I remember when I started to see 7oh pop up, I knew it was going to end like this but I can understand getting rid of 7oh/mgm-15/16. With that being said, they should leave plain leaf alone!
  15. MorfineOrfan @ MorfineOrfan: @st1ckyf1ng4z oh trust, i know that, im helping a pretty big vendor transition, to here and dnm , but prices are going to rise bc of risk. But availability is only part of this whole kratom alks situation. We have a serious problem with society. Last year alcohol killed 178,000 people, last year all other drugs combined killed 69,973 Out of those 38,084 were from opiate/opioids and out of those 0 were killed by 7oh. With these numbers we can see the problem with banning 7oh
  16. MrFuszy @ MrFuszy: Hell i remember when getting 25g of aphip was like 200$ or so
  17. MrFuszy @ MrFuszy: Dude wants $150 for 5g... I told him nahh doggy cmon.
  18. MrFuszy @ MrFuszy: Man im tryin to get this one kat to come off that apvp for 75$
  19. MrFuszy @ MrFuszy: Cant wait to get the apvp in
  20. token @ token: Afternoon everyone! Hope their day or night has been good!
