Tramadol is a serotonin releaser, I call it MDMA-lite: a watered down, much less tasty and much less enjoyable version.
Conventional serotonin-based antidepressants inhibit the reuptake of serotonin, which take a while to take full effect. Tramadol will give you immediate antidepressant effects, but also give immediate SNRI withdrawal symptoms the next day. Tramadol cannot be good to take on a long term basis, imo. Even when I was using it twice a week, it was still significantly fucking up my mood on the off days, and these were at only 75-100mg dosages dosed once a day.
Tramadol is quite a "dirty" drug in terms of how many different receptors it works on, as much as I love it I must admit that . Like I mentioned before, it acts of various receptors. For example, it is a muscarinic aCHhR and nicotinic aCHhR antagonist (correction to above), making it worse for focus at higher dosages, most say this becomes significant at doses of >200mg. I preferred it at 50mg at a time during last semester's finals week.
Pharma-sutra, I agree. L-amp is useful as a utilitarian stimulant, especially in those with inattentive ADD, who have lower baseline dosages of NE than those with hyperactive ADHD, and need a PNS stimulant like L-amp, ephedrine, or caffeine to raise that NE level.
