Just switching from Cymbalta (couldn't sleep, didn't notice improvement in mood). I am now taking Nefazedone for anxiety and depression but I have been VERY sleepy in the AM and my balance is a bit "off". I am also coming off of a sinus infection (treated with Avelox) an sinus wise feeling 80% better. My question is if anyone has had experience with these drugs and if they had any side effects? If so did they go away, if yes, How long did that take?
Hang in there. I take Pozac for anxiety and it works for me. I wish you lots of luck and love and keep posting.
well i thought the worst was over. I finished tapering down my meds. I worked down to like 1/3rd of a pill. I havent taken any for a good while. I just feel genuinely crappy. I feel sickish nothing compared to what happened when i tried to stop cold turkey. I have no energy today. I have some slight chills and a little bit of stomach discomfort. Im so depressed right now its not even funny though. Im practically crying as I type this. I was depressed before even taking pain pills and now its 10x worse. Id rather not go on prescription anti depressants cause ive never talked to a single person they worked for. Is there anything I can take to help with the lack of energy and depression? I know it will be better after a while of being off the pills completely. Im sitting here at home no job (had to leave my last job due to me being sick all the time and my car getting totaled) Im 22 and my life is absolutely garbage, it seems like it will never get better :(.
My fiance broke up with me in october, i quit my job in november, in march I pull a muscle in my back so I cant lift weights for a good while which made me feel really good. I took pain pills for the back pain got addicated, stopped taking them and now am extremely depressed. I still have to go get an ultrasound because of a lump on my one testicle. I know life could be a lot worse its just everything seems so pointless and hopeless today.
Maybe I will smoke some weed later today it always helps imo its probably one of the most helpful substances out there and its illegal lol. Go figure. Ill be checking back. Ill talk to you guys later.

I have been taking Tramadol for the last 3 years and I was taking about 12 to 13 pills a day. It's my 4th day off of them and I feel better. I want to be normal again , I miss my life with my children. Tramadol will wreck your life, relationships, etc. I still have major back pain, but I'd rather feel that then be a prisoner of that drug any longer. You won'y believe the stories that I had to tell sometimes because of my addicton. You'll make it-I was taking them alot more and longer then you and I'm doing it. It's sucks, it really does going through the w/d's, but after the 4th day you feel like a human agaqin. You feel in control of your life. At least that's how I'm feeling. I don't ever want to take something again that control's my life. If you need anyone to talk to, I'm here, and I know alot about it. Take care of yourself. Cold turkey is the hardest but the best way to get it out of your system.
Hang in there there is much love and support along with tons of useful info here. Much love and prayers, Mike
ill have to try that. It sucks cause today i still feel ******, i took a pill at 8 30 and im trying to wait till 2 30 to take my next....
astal,
nope 5 hpt , will help with mood , it might lighten up some of the crying spells that come with WD from tramadol ...
melatonin ,is great as well i took the sublingal kind to get my sleep back in order ......
Thanks. I plan on taking some kola nut and valerian root (supposed to help with withdrawl) 5 hpt is that melatonin or somthing else cause melatonin is for sleep hehehe. I will tell you one thing this is a life changing experience. Something no one should ever have to deal with but sadly so many do.
welcome ,
tramadol withdrawl can be very nasty ,there are ways to help .lowering your dose slowly helps alot .i can help with a plan if you ever need one .
if you are not on a tricyclic or ssri antidepressant ,there are some supplements that can help you ....
L tyrosine .....helps for energy
5 hpt or sam e helps for mood
they helped me the most ,i took some magnesium and calcium ....as well
you can make it threw this I have been clean from tramdol for almost 7 months .....
