I in no way have hate for tramadol.
I simply say that this drug is way too dangerous to be used for recreation.
I see people gorging on a bottle of 50 mg pills trying to get high on a 200 mg a day oxy habit, wondering why they are nauseous and heavily anxiety ridden just seizing...
I even think that it should have a major role in the research of opiate type medications with mixed re-uptake capabilities in depression.
I even would go a step farther and patent a combination formula with a fixed ratio of tramadol and pregabalin for treatment resistant depression, anxiety and nerve pain. As most people with all three of those some types of symptomless pain.
I have love for tramadol, but for recreation, it will never be safe. It is trash to abuse.
People are just slowly degrading the drug of what it is truly worth by trying to load up to get a high that it's just not worth the hassle of having to acquire a pretty heavy dose of anticonvulsant to ward off it's highly risky seizure activity.
People must ask themselves why get high on a drug that is so risky to use in such a manner...
