I'm still on Tramadol =|
I take 450mg to 500mg daily. The most I have taken in a 8-12 hour period was 550mg to 575mg, possibly 600mg. I try to take less, but I always have that "itch in the chest" or a cold feeling, even after taking my nightly Oxy ER. So recently I have been having to take an extra tab, or 2, so I can sleep without withdrawal.
BUT I also take 16mg + Clonzepam at night, all at once, so I assume that's going to help lower the chance of seziure, unless I go overboard and pop 700mg to 1000mg+
Then I take 40mg Oxy ER to sleep. Tramadol antidepressants effects are very noticeable. I feel somewhat normal.
But if I'm JUST on Oxy?? I have no energy, no motivation, depressed, etc.........Yet when I take Tramadol it removes most of the WD, and has greatly reduced my depression, OCD, and much more.
Sooo... If I go back to Oxy only, to taper, , I'll become depressed again, no energy, etc.... So my question WAS: what do I do!?! If I go back to Oxy only to taper I'll be super depressed... I NEED AN antidepressant, and Tramadol being an SNRI has made me feel normal. Problem is most SSRI's do effect the metabolism of Oxycodone. If I take Prozac, then try to take Oxy I will remain in WD. It just won't absorb. Tried is so many times... Same story for most antidepressants.... Haven't tried Effexor ER Yet, but I hear that's basically Tramadol minus the opiod effects.
It's called "California rocket fuel" when taking with Remeron, which I take. I guess because the two drugs combined helps serotonin, NE, and dopamine.
