I am presently detoxing off of tramadol. For 6 + long years I have been in the hell of addiction. My recenting dosing was above 40 pills a day! This is the third night I have gone without the drug and I have swore I never will again! I feebly tried a taper down but to an addict, that's really untangable. I didn't have the money, ($9000. +) for the effective anethesia detox. Locally there are but 1 detox center that I tried for a day. It was nothing but a drunk tank with a strong ambience of depression.
I'm typing best I can right now because its my third day of being clean. Fortunately I found adoctor who would help me with some of the side effects. I take Klonopin for an anti-anxiety, compazine for the nausea and diarrah and Requip for restless leg symptoms. For cold turkey, these drugs have helped me greatly. Tramadol always made me exceedingly productive, but like any other evil, and it is evil, the drug seized my life, I was a pill poppin junkie. Stop it now!!! Save yourself. I am an expert on this and questions forwarded to me will be answered to the best of my ability. One note on the the side-effects medicines, try coffee or caffiened water. Soda will just make things worse but the caffiene will offer a bit of normalcy to the anquish of detoxing. All take care, and I for one am here to tell you of my rebirth to who I should be.
