Yes, that may keep your urges in check, but what happens when you "accidentally" go on a binge and take 2-300mg at once a few days in a row and run out of pills with a week before you can call in for a refill? And of course if you only take it twice daily (as well as only been on it for 4 months; this is the amount of time I would expect it to take for physical dependence to set in) dependence isn't going to be much of an issue. For one, you're taking the minimum dose, AND you're not keeping a steady amount in your blood. Yes, tramadol has a long half-life, but it isn't THAT long. One other thing you need to think about though...even though it's not a strong opioid, you're still upping your opioid tolerance. What are you going to do when you get older and you need opioids for neck or back pain? Or what are you going to do when you're in a bad car wreck (because they don't give you strong enough shit anyway when you leave the ER)?
You're going to be shit out of luck because your tolerance is going to be fucked and the meds they give you aren't going to touch your needs. Don't fuck yourself by taking opioids for something other than pain on a regular-near regular basis. I might still once in a blue moon take something stronger and try to get "high" by doing so, but most of the time when I take something stronger that I get off the street, I'm taking it for pain. There once was a time when I used to use opioids SOLELY for the purpose to get "high," but it was MAYBE once every 3 or 4 months I'd go and get 4 or 5 vicodin and have them gone in a day. It was not 2 or 3 times per week though. So I'll say it again: Don't fuck yourself.
