Hi,

Yes, The Tramadol is addictive. You seem to be stuck in the cycle of taking one pill to get off of another. I suggest you taper off the Tramadol and get it over with.

Withdrawal is no where as bad as what you are putting yourself through right now. We can help you with home remedies and such.
