My introduction to Tramadol came when I needed to take it for pain relief.

I knew it was a synthetic opiate drug but had no experience of opiate drugs and so no idea what to expect from it.

I had got a supply of the effervescent Tramadol that came as large powdery tablets with a menthyl flavour that dissolve quickly in water. They actually had more of a lemon flavour and turned water fizzy. It was like drinking lemonade and quite pleasant probably due to the artificial sweeteners heaped in, including the nasty Aspartame. I put this out of my mind, dropped one 50mg tablet into a glass of water and gulped it down and waited to see what would happen. I wasn't expecting much but boy was in for a shock.

The onset was rapid within about 10-15 minutes. It started as a warm tingly feeling in the arms and legs, which spread to the fingers and back of the neck. It was like being stroked from the inside.

My mood before taking the Tramadol wasn't very good, I was feeling a bit depressed and low, and I had extremely low energy and motivation which had been plaguing me for weeks. I was lounging around the house not doing much, even though it was the middle of summer. Everyone was enjoying themselves outside, but with my social anxiety disorder, I didn't feel able to go out and had become more reclusive and withdrawn.

As the physical effects continued to build up I knew this was no ordinary painkiller and this was something very special. The only time I had felt physical pleasure of this kind was from getting high on weed. Only this was different, much more clear and clean. I suddenly felt very happy and euphoric, energised and uplifted, but completely calm and stable. My depression and bad feelings just vanished and for the first time in weeks I felt like going outside.

I went for a long bike ride in the countryside and everything was heightened and pleasurable. The warmth of the sun, the colours and sounds of nature, and the breeze of the wind on my skin..everything just felt wonderful and I was so happy to be alive. I even found myself smiling at strangers and greeting them with genuine empathy towards them. Extremely unusual for me.

I have never tried E but I wondered from the reports I've read, if what I was feeling might be something like taking E. At times I felt like I was tripping slightly, things seemed vivid and heightened, and I was happy to just go off into my own little world of thoughts and explore memories and feelings, and at other times I felt at one with the world, a great sense of inner peace and just belonging.

I continued to use the tablets for the next couple of months. Taking one with breakfast became like a ritual. I would go out running and exercising because i was just so motivated and energised. Exercise was so much easier. I actually managed to get very fit and healthy thanks to Tramadol and was getting out more too instead of moping around indoors every day, which did wonders for my anxiety and confidence.

Eventually my tablets ran out and I was unable to get anymore of the effervescent and my pharmacy gave me the regular pills instead. To my horror these didn't have the same effect as the effervescent tablets. The euphoria and loved up motivated feeling was gone. Although the regular pills did help energy levels and mood, they also increased anxiety and agitation over time, so I eventually had to stop taking them.

I've never seen the effervescent Tramadol tablets since, but I would love to try them again to see whether they are indeed unique, or whether I had just developed some tolerance from prolonged usage.
 
Interesting. I have never seen powdered "effervescent", as you say, tramadol. It must be a preparation found only the uk? As for the regular tablets having a different effect, that is likely due to tolerance because the active ingredient is the same and should have no different effect other than a delayed onset because of the time it takes for the pills to dissolve.

I don't know whether I can say the brand, but they were a generic Tramadol made by a British pharmaceutical.
 
Wonderful to hear you've had great times with Tramadol. I myself am very fond of the drug but use it more recreational. My first experiance with it was when my grandfather came up for a visit and had with him a bottle of 403 50mg Tramadol pills. I took 4 my first time ever, 200mg, and it was amazing! Like you I had that same effects, very happy and euphoric. I started to abuse it very badly though, got to the point where I wouldn't even feel anything off 4 so I upped my dose to 8, 400mg, which is reported to cause seizures (at the time I did not know).

My next ecounter with them was when my whole family got together at my Aunts house for Christmas. My grandfather was there again, and what do you know, another full bottle of 403 50mg Tramadol pills. For a week straight I was taking 6 - 10 a day, and each and everyday was incredible! Playing ping-pong was a great time with all my family around me. My love for this drug got so bad though that I was taking 16 a day (in moderation). I'm very glad I have a high tolerance to the drug, cause otherwise I could be dead right now.

To wrap it up Tramadol is a great drug. If you need a mood change pop 1 or 2 and you'll be great.
 
Tramadol is ok. I had got enough for a month, taking them everyday. If I get good sleep and take them, Im in a nice relaxed mood and laugh at random stuff all day. But if I have not had any sleep for a while I just get really tired half way through the day, that I can just sleep about anywhere.

Yes, you can. Quoting the company which makes a specific pharmaceutical is not against the rules. What is prohibited is sourcing places to buy drugs or price discussion.
 
the thought of tramadol makes me sick- i had a script for it and was off opiates for awhile, but i never had a good high on tramadol---even though i took high high doses- glad u experienced something- stay safe
 
Sounds like kratom, you should try it. I find kratom to have an empathetic side effect that regular opiates don't seem to have. Much more stimulation too.

It almost seems like all I ever post about anymore is kratom...
 
I love tramadol. Everyone can tell I'm on drugs when I'm on it, even though it doesn't really feel super strong. Gives me a comfortably numb feeling as well as a lot of energy. I wish I could buy it over the counter. Wonderful SNRI. Definitely A+ in my book.

I just look sleepy, not high sleepy though. I wish it gave me a lot of energy. For me its not a A+ maybe a C
 
I loved tramadol too.. but im telling you what my tolerance is so high and i overdo it. I actually started taking Kratom in order to get off the tramadol (and all other opioids) .. Im new here (hey! :) ) ... but have lurked on these sights for years... probably 3-4. Tramadol has caused me to have seizures... but every single time i just go right back to them. I used to buy them online but have no idea how to do that any more... so i started getting them from a friend who got a script every month. Sucks.

I went through my first withdrawal because of them. I got super bad insomnia and restlessness. The restlessness is the worst. It sends me into tears sometimes. Please be careful taking them in high doses. I always wonder what would happen if I have a seizure while driving or something. So incredibly selfish. I need to stop.... the kratom has helped with the withdrawal SO much...
 
Oh Kratom is a natural herb from sth east asia, i never would have guessed that. I've been to Malaysia three times for holidays and i've never come across it.

You guys reckon it's up there with smack as far as recreation value.
