Please read this of your addicted to tramadol

Please take a minute and listen to my story, if this can persuade you in a way, God bless. I started taking tramadol to go out n party, it made more confident and social, everybody liked me more. I felt like the king of the world. As I began to take it for a few months and not feeling much withdrawals, months became years. After 2 years i tried to quit the withdrawals were so bad that i had to continue taking this drug just to feel normal and take care of my responsible. After the 3rd year i had lost 25 pounds, lost friends, lost relationships, life had no emotion except sadness and envy of how people can live without this amazing drug, i stopped partying and lost any desire to do anything and felt like i was living in a cloud just drugging through the days, the light didn;t shine as bright. One day i got so sick i had to go to the hospital from an overdose of tramadol, i had to either quit the drug or continue living in a fantasy world which shielded me from reality and limited my potential to develop into the person i worked so hard to be. It took me 2 weeks im depression, insomnia, fatigue, and basically hell to sober up. I've been on this crap for 2 months now and i feel like the last 3 months of my life were a haze and a waste of short precious time on this beautiful earth. The longer u use, the harder it becomes to quit, go through 5-10 days of withdrawals and the light is brighter than ever on the other side. Humans are meant to live with feeling, emotion, excitement, passion, while Tramadol numbs you from the beauty of life. Quit when you can and your life will be better!!!!!!!!!!

Great post.  I couldn't agree with you more - I allowed tramadol to steal so much from me sometimes it's hard to think back on those days and recall all the damage I did to myself.  I will NEVER allow another Dr. to prescribe that poison to me.  It was worse to me than the regular opiates.  I know we're all different when it comes to addiction, but the withdrawal from the trams was the worst time of my life.  And I could not be more grateful today to be living a different life.  You remember things - actually you remember everything after you quit.  Not that life is perfect - but it never will be.  But I'll take remembering my time here on earth over that f'g BS fog the tram puts you in any day.

I'm so happy that you found your way out.  Keep going and you'll continue to feel better.  Better than you have in years I'll bet.  :)

Thank you for sharing your story. Yes, tramadol can be pure hell to withdraw from. I tapered; I could have never quit cold like you did. The one time I ran out of pills 1300 miles away due to a snowed-in flight  made me wish that I were dead--and I've never had depression before.
I am so happy for you and your successful detox and clean time! Thanks again for the post.
