I have been reading this message board for about a month. I started taking tramdol (caplets) in May recreationally, I never thought I would take it regularly. But, I had been using it for about 3 weeks recreationaly as I had been on vacation but I stopped taking it as I had started a new job. I started feeling severely depressed and I could not figure out why. So to treat this I started taking my tramadol and it made me feel much better. I took it about 3 -4 times a week for about 3 months. Then, I ran out and still felt depressed. I thought I was just depressed but couldn't figure out why as everything was going well in my life. I had not taken tramadol for 2 weeks. Then, I got more tramadol pills. This time they were the white caplets. I took them again. I didn't take them one night and woke up throwing up with diarehha. I didn't think it was because of tramadol as I had never had this reaction to the capsules. Then, I started taking them again. I used them most often on the weekends and on Monday I always felt the worse. FINALLY, I put two and two together and realized this depression was due to my tramadol use. Now, I am on anti-depressants (Lexapro) and Xanax. It's been less than a week but the Xanax doesn't do anything for me and I feel really agitated because I want to take my tramadol. I even through out 50 of them because I could NOT stop thinking of them. Has anyone had a similar situation and has anyone found a way for help? Thanks.
