Tapentadol is not a pro-drug, unlike tramadol. But, like tramadol, it has a dual mechanism of action: (1) mu opioid agonist (2) norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (although tramadol inhibits serotonin reuptake). So, like tramadol, it has some risk of causing seizures (although apparently much lower than tramadol) and a good antidepressant effect. Its potency is something like the double or triple than tram (300mg feels like 600-900 tramadol).
Give it a try pal. I have seen on the "darknet" very good prices for this drug.
That's weird. As far as I can remember, it has happened to me very few times. Only when I took tramadol with another drug or when I take it after a long time clean. With antidepressants either, just diarrhea from taking a very large dose hahaha.
What dose of tramadol are you taking, buddy?
Hell, I wish I knew how to utilize the dark net. lol I'm pretty ignorant to this new age technology stuff,. otherwise I'd have brown rocks at my disposal instead.

I was taking care of my mom with cancer for the past year in a shitty apartment and was constantly being kept awake by the asshole Cubans upstairs who would party, fight and drink non stop, 24/7, which meant constant stomping and pounding sounds above my head all day long. Called the landlord 4 times and the police twice. Pretty much was told to deal with it & that nothing could be done about it. Like I no longer had the right to sleep in my own home when I wanted and that I was being "petty" for even complaining about it.
So I started pounding back on the ceiling at these assholes and then they would go complain to the landlord about it, like I was just doing it for fun. For some fucked up reasons, he took their side and actually evicted me and my mom. So I had to move recently and leave all my friends, my mom and memories behind. Looks like it'll strictly be buprenorphine for me for awhile.

I have a love/hate relationship with bupe.
As for the trams, I was addicted to them for 10+ years before I got into heroin. My doses back then were anywhere from 6-10 50mg pills a day. Back then I actually got extreme euphoria from tramadol. I could sit and listen to the same songs on repeat for hours and chain smoke and it would literally be the time of my life.
But after getting onto buprenorphine, tramadol completely lost it's magic. I use pretty low doses of bupe, so I don't think it's because it's being blocked or anything. All I seem to get from it now is the serotonin nausea and jitters and sometimes a random non-euphoric nod or extreme drowsiness. Not sure what happened unless it's just a tolerance issue or something.
But I digress. If I could have my pick of any opiate, I think I would stick with an unlimited supply of heroin. I would only need maybe 3-4 hits a day and would be a happy man, but alas, my country doesn't think I should have that freedom over my mind and body unfortunately.
Been a pleasure speaking with a likeminded opi-lover like yourself these past few weeks.

Always been a lurker on Bluelight, but decided to sign up a year ago, so that I could converse with people who enjoy drugs and drug knowledge without getting that "you're a fuckin' junkie" reaction from the normal folks.
