I get noticeably more depressed when I don't have Tramadol. I am prescribed it for chronic pain, not depression. My weekly script tends to last me 3-4 days as I take more than I'm supposed to, especially when I am feeling down.
I am on a high dose of Sertraline (Zoloft) and also take Trazodone so I doubt a lack of serotonin is responsible. The depression lessens but still persists even if I take other opiates, too.
So all I can think is that it is the lack of noradrenaline reuptake. I don't know much about noradrenaline, really. Does it really have enough anti-depressant or mood-elevating effects to affect me so noticeably?
