Tramadol Dependancy
I am sick and tired of taking tramadol... I have been on them for years. I'm almost out of them, I have 9 left to be exact. And cannot get ten filled again until the 23/rd of this month. I so would love to kick this bad habit..
Someone please help...
Someone please help...
Yes Frogger, you answered my question, but in my heart I knew this
..I have been taking these pills since 2002, when I couldn't get my vicodin. due to me eating them up like candy, then having withdrawels, I called my mom , she said come over I have a bottle 300 ultram, I had no clue what they were, I was ready to try anything at that point...She dug in her cabinet and threw them to me, saying, "keep them", she told me "they were garbadge" LOL God rest her soul, but lo and behold they worked for me..NOT GARBADGE SAID I...
I started taking 1, then an hour later 2, 3, then reading the bottle, I said "oh my, I can take up to 8 a day, but no more than 8" ...So, that's exactly what I did...I loved them, I fiened for them, like I am now. I had thought that I found the ticket to getting off of Vicodans...Pffft, I was taking something even more lethal..IMO...Hmnm, I'll blame it on mom..I shouldn't make light of this..but...
.Back then,in the early 2000, doctors wrote them out like they were candy.
Maybe they need to take them, and see how it can screw up their patients' lives..
I believe one or 2 months ago is when doctors STOPPED handing out so many trams.... they also gave lots of refills..
making it so easy to pharmacy hop to get a lot of them..
One day the pharmacy said:
"YOU GOT FLAGGED"
I was like....."HOW DARE THEY?!!"
.so, now, I am screwed..
OMG! Listen to me, a true sign I am a druggy..now my favorite Tramodol/Ultram are controlled....IDK what I'm going to do...I really don't..
I do want to quit...that I do know.
It's to the point where If I know someone is coming over , I immediately grabb the bottle, and pop up to 8 pills , 6 when I am being good, so I can sit thru the visit...same goes for whenever I go store, for a ride, you name it, it's SICK!! Then, I wonder .."where did all the pills go to?"
I HATE IT, and HATE MYSELF..but you know, I never felt the need to off myself over this..
I'd just like to get well guys' ....I am tired people...plain tired.
This question is for everyone here:
Have you heard of this drug, called Buprenorphine.?.. its suppose to help the brain think we are still on a Ultram..
I also take Neurontin..or gabapentin, is the generic name,,,this drug makes me forget about taking ultram, like I usually do immediately the minute I get up in the morning..but, these darn pills make me sleepy.
I will PRAY real hard for all of you and for myself.
Thank you for being here for me...maybe one day, I will be able to same the same as you Frogger..that I quit..SIGHS

You're making a big step by searching for answers and wanting to get clean. There is a lot of knowledge here and they can assist on your journey. I'm only 9 days in off my drug of choice, but the clarity is great. You will get there, You can get there.
Hey there, I was wondering how you were. Personally, I'd stay clear of buprenorphine (spelling??). It's highly addictive, I've heard some pretty crazy stories about it. But on the other hand, some people have success with it, that's a tough one?? Sorry to hear your still struggling, I feel ya. Coming off trams is not easy, but if the neurontin is helping, I'd stick with that for now. Good luck and take care!!

Hey there!! I too was addicted to trams for years, 50-60 pills per day. I had no choice but to quit cold turkey, if you can taper off them that would probably be best. Your gonna experience some pretty intense withdrawals, trams are very hard to come off of. Mine started to ease about day 30. The mental withdrawals are much longer, some say their brain feels right again in 6 months, others up to two years, I guess it depends on how many and the length of time you were on them.
I don't know if this is the info you were looking for, but I'm sure others will be on to help you out. It's a rough ride, but you can do this. I've been clean over 6 years, so it is doable. Stick around and post as often as you need to!! I wish ya luck!!!
