Ultram

I am brand new here so please excuse me if I post this incorrectly. I have severe chronic pain that in 2001 I was given an RX for Ultram. I was told it was safe and totally non-addictive. They have given me this stuff for 6 years and here I am now with a kicking addiction! I still have the pain but I am unwilling to continue with a drug that if I miss a dose I will go through withdrawals! I have started cutting down but even with just 1/4 less of a pill I feel pretty unpleasant side effects. I am determined to do this though. Has anyone else gone through this? How long does the jittery, skin crawling feeling last??
I have gone to my doctors about getting off of this and they pretty much blew me off and told me I was fine taking it and it was a safe drug. Do they not understand what it can do to a person??
