Will this work? I have took Trams in the past when I ran out of shit. Oddly enough I thought you drink grape fruit juice on this and you dont, But I still got a nice buzz going. I have access to some 50mg tablets containing nothing but tram as far as I know. Will this help the depression, any w/d symptoms or am I just really fucked? Im trying to get clean but nothings working. My depression caused by drugs is at an all time High right now.
 
Not really, and if it did, that would only be so long as you guarantee that you don't get hooked on the tramadol itself.

I experienced Heroin withdrawal, and I experienced Tramadol withdrawal. Of the two, I'd pick the heroin withdrawal any day.

With tramadol, you have to deal with about 5 days of (relatively) mild opiate withdrawal, as well as at least 7 days of HORRIFIC SSRI withdrawal that lasts for about a week, starting day 3 of the opiate withdrawal.

I wouldn't bother if I were you.
 
I used them to get of a 8yr bupe habit. Went 3-5 days and relapsed on H, first time in almost 5 fucking years. I said fuck this and got a script from my doc for tram. Took um for 2 weeks and my w/d was next to nothing. Although those 2 weeks taking them I felt very slight w/d the whole time which was good.

Tomorrow will be 2 weeks no opiates. Thats is MAJOR to me.

peace.

but it will help? Im on vicodin right now and this shit is weak sauce. Not helping. I want to gack. If I added a tramadol would this be better or worse?

Good job! But yes, if you manage to get a limited supply of tram and resist the temptation to keep taking it, this won't be long enough to warrant any bad SNRI withdrawals.

Because Tramadol's SNRI effects are rapid and short-lived, their withdrawals - all psychological - can be seriously debilitating, and I compare them to Amphetamine withdrawals (the closest thing I've experienced). If I were to compare, it felt like withdrawals from dexedrine and hydrocodone all at once and lasted no less than 10 days in total.

7 days that last for a week? Sounds normal to me. ;)

Lol!

I meant to say a week, starting after day 3 :)
