@@elizabeths7700 not tryna be /that/ guy, but tramadol withdrawal is incredibly mild and takes weeks of daily use to build dependance. the more you know!!👏🙏👍
+Arthur Porter Hey there. No offense taken but thank you anyway for not being the other type of guy we often see. I was on 150mg daily of Tramadol for years due to chronic pain ... there were times when I took 150mg XR x2 daily. And one day out of the blue, it stopped working. Just like that. My new GP didn't wean me off because I was taking Cymbalta as well ... the two drugs show major contra-indications. I went into full hellish withdrawal for weeks on end ... drug craving, heightened depression, anxiety to name a few ... I will never forgive him for putting me through this. From my perspective, Drs aren't fully aware of the dangers and addiction potential. I later did some research and only found one study (if it can be called that) relating to a lady in the US or UK entering an emergency facily in full-blown withrawal aka Drug Discontinuation Syndrome. I would cite the source if I could remember it, but I can't. Perhaps search Tramadol + DDSyndrome. As I said, I only found one article unfortunately. Tramadol is a good drug for moderate-severe pain if used sparingly IMHO. The other problem relates to misuse. I understand that misuse is currently problematical in India. But anyway, that (in brief) was my experience of this drug. Maybe one day I'll use it again ... maybe. Thank you for responding! ✌☺
‘It can make someone more easily agitated despite otherwise being in a good mood’ I can relate to that 100 percent on high doses, it’s bizarre. I’ve never acted on that aggravation however. And found it easy enough to keep on top of.
Thank You ! Amy 93 yr old Mom is in hospice care ,I am her only caregiver ,I'm so glad I have your Chanel to watch for adverse effects of some of these drugs ! At least I know what to look out for as the endless papers they give you don't give you the real reactions of other patients ,and especially what to look out for ! ❤️☮️
Your 30 min classroom is more understandable than an hour of plain lecture at college. If I have to learn myself, then I’ll need to search and read all those pharmacological textbooks at the library which will probably take 2-3 hours. Thanks Drug classroom. ✊🏼
When I was prescribed Tramadol. It made life much more easier. Work was a blast. It help me enjoy my boring job. It also made me not care about others feelings. Which was something I needed at the time.
I started with 50mg a day. But after awhile I was at 500mg a day. I was hooked. It took me awhile to get off it. I finally told my doctor I was an addict to it. She was upset but was proud I told her lol
i have so much respect for you and what you're doing, man. The way you responded to my political nag on one of your videos recently just showed how you have CLASS (as in you won't just flame some random nerd because they didn't check the date on your videos) and it serves to, dare I say, PROVE, that you're willing to learn and accept new information all while being polite, earnest and respectful. A genuine, well-intentioned and nice human. Easily the most important traits a content creator could have in this field, by a country mile. Especially when you get into things in the community like elitism and stereotypical peer-pressuring to dose higher. As a 7 year opioid addict and decade-long drug-enthusiest, I can say I recommend your videos _so_ often when people ask me questions about drugs and drug combinations that it's kinda insane. And while I promote harm reduction, self-awareness and restraint because I don't want anyone else to go down the path of opioid dependance that I did, even if I don't think it's something that should influence the way you view someone who you may have found out to be an opioid user. We're just like everyone else! It's just our u-Opioid receptors need a lil more lovin'! If ANYONE ever needs any info on specifically opioid harm reduction and practice, from a 1st hand perspective, feel free to hit me up any time! I wish I had someone with knowledge like our boy Seth when I started my psychoactive journey. And SETH if you ever wanna talk to the archetypal, stereotypical face of the US Opipid "Epidemic", holla at me! I have been through it all - rehab, inpatient, outpatient, halfway houses, methadone maintenance, suboxone, relapse, all of it. Sorry for the rant - been using adderall to be able to get through my 10 hour shifts at work without wanting to end my own life haha
Thanks for the nice comment and for sharing the content with others! It's really great to hear you view TDC that way. If you want to talk feel free to email me, seth@thedrugclassroom.com
Hello, have you ever addressed anyone with chronic pain, that uses heavy meds? Do you have any advice for someone with chronic pain, but not necessarily an "addict" ? He feels as thought he will be branded an addict if he seeks help within the AA arena. Any advice? If your still out there? Thank you!
+The Drug Classroom i find after 20+ years of daily usage of prescribed Tramadol 400mg per day , that it is a miracle drug , that effects the body in so many positive ways at once compared to other opiates or mild antidepressants . But the positive benefits of pain release, mood improvement, numbing of penis , energy boast , all disappear over several months of usage . unless i up the dosage to over seizure levels . "2000mg in one go"
A friend of mine had a seizure from tramadol. I was dependent on it, up to 15-20 50 mg pills a day, it has gross withdrawals, like opioid wds mixed with anti-depressant wds, a gross feeling for sure. Sexual effects were exactly as you described, very difficult to orgasm. I'm SO glad I have been done with opioids since Oct. 2015.
Oh my god friend. I saw this years ago and I figured out that it was super addicting because you had the opioid addiction and you had the serotonin re-release uptake inhibitors addiction. I figured this would be a fatal addiction because a person would be hooked both things and if you couldn't get tramadol exactly like you had got you would not be able to feel you receptors for the serotonin and for the opiate. I'll pray for you kid God bless you and good luck staying away.
I love this channel so much. These are the kinds of lessons schools need to be teaching about drugs, not the typical biased bullshit that's been outdated for years now. I feel like if it wasn't for this channel, I would've made mistakes with my drug experiments that could've ended up costing me my life, im thankful that I researched before trying something dangerous .

I've never met anyone that abused Tramadol before I met my sister in law. She would take up to twenty in one day before we kept her in check and me along with my wife had to step in and keep her doses within a reasonable range. The day she ate thirty one time and we were surprised that she didn't die that day. Got her down to 3 every two days within a short period, and she is now off completely. She was nodding out on my couch and would get defensive when we'd wake her up. The day we stepped in was when she spilled her medication all over my couch and I was the only one who notice. She had been using it for years and had gotten really bad the past year. Now she's sober aside from her mj card, that I felt she should transition to. Psychedelics helped me get completely sober myself. Stay positive people and help your friends!
Just discovered you..this analysis is singularly the most accurate I have ever encountered for Tramadol and a shining example of all that is good about the internet - content creators of the world take note, THIS IS HOW YOU DO IT! In one go you have earned my highest praise, dedicated attention and five effing stars - you will doubtlessly succeed if this is any example. Thank you sir
Yup the drug was amazing for me the nicest warmest feeling of euphoria and well being with 0 negative effects lol - About 2 / 5 people I gave some to enjoyed it so yeah that sounds correct.
Same, I actually remember Tramadol more fondly than even heroin, it was the greatest and at the same time most gentle high I've ever experienced, and the most well balanced, with absolutely zero side effects, in fact I always had that all day long antidepressant afterglow mellow energy the following day after using the evening before..
@@titianmom Well it isn't fake happiness, its more unearned happiness, and anything un-earned will eventually be paid for. It served its purpose by giving me peace when I needed it, now that I'm healed I must never take it again.
I take tramadol as a pain killer for menstrual cramps. I’ve always had severe cramps and Advil never did the job. Finally my doctor prescribed me this and it’s been a saving grace lmao also an upside that after the pain subsides, it keeps working and I’m the most relaxed I’ve ever been
I have some tramadol for pain. I also have severe clinical depression. I've seen little effect from any of the dozen anti depressants I've tried but Tramadol makes me feel great. Not high mind you, but great. I can think clearer, feel better, no anger issues or mood swings. Sadly, it has a minimal effect on the pinched nerves in my neck or arm. Cool thing is the antidepressant effect lasts 8-10 hours even though the pain reliving part only lasts about 4. Now if I can get put on an SNRI that works as well as Tramadol without the opiate issue.
Damn i thought i was the only one for who it doesn’t work for c7 pinched nerve. Exactly same as you, it did work sometimes, but at higher doses and can suddenly stop working one minute after. Weird drug.. How long did you pinched nerve last? I’m currently on ketoprofene and tramadol, already 8 weeks
Effexor and Tramadol are the closest in terms of similar effects regarding the SNRI activity, duration of action and side effect profile. I'm on Pristiq, basically a major metabolite of Effexor and it's a really good one at least for me
Been taking this for years. I take a max of 50mg a day, never more than that, taking half in the morning and half in the evening. it really helps me with my mood and gives an energy boost
@@mp-uy9sv I was up on 500mg+ daily 250-350mg first dose a month ago, you need more and more i started with 150-200mg and would add 50mg every few months until i hit 500mg, then i took a break for a week and went down to 250mg.
I went through a detox with a guy who had a tramadol problem, he used to take it for is bowels dissease... he had a hard time coming off it, they just lowert his dose each time. While i was getting methadone for my oxy problem, it seemed like he had it way worse then me!? Untill my methadone got cut off then haha.. Hope he doing good now. Same as all other people that struggle with substance abuse issues. All the best to you! 🙏🏻
Tom A two things I'm suffering from, my friend broke his nose and he was prescribed pill 319 "50mg tram" he gave me 3 left over pills I took one before my Bowling league because my back is just beyond fucked right now , not only did my back and nagging pains elsewhere in my body feel relieved and loose my mental out look was incredible, it was one of the better days I've had physically and mentally relative to what I've been experiencing
I have been prescribed tramadol for a chronic pain condition the last 4 years. I used to get a small buzz of euphoria when taking 100 mg rapid release - but that was years ago. I take a delayed release 100 mg capsule every 12 hours and it takes the edge of the pains - but increasing dosage is not more effective. If I stop taking them I get brain noise - like electric jolts through my head and I feel cold and get goosebumps. So yes it can be addictive.It has very little value as a recreational drug and I do not recommend taking more than 400 mg daily
@Brandon Lester yes sound very similar. Tramodol actually works a bit like a SNRI anti-depressant too so the withdrawal side effects are similar too. Methadone is a very strong opioid that can be used as a painkiller or as substitution treatment for opioid addiction - I once took a dosage recreationally and I overdosed since I did not know the strength of the liquid form of methadone. I nearly stopped breathing and it was a scary experience. Take care
I did most of my university on opiods for learning. started always taking 2 weeks before the 2 weeks we had all our tests, took a little bit longer for pleasure until the end of semester break and then kicked it again.... Worked at the beginning pretty good. Later not so much because the euphoria wasnt there anymore. Was pretty addicted at the end but I took all kinds of Opiods I could get my hands on.
@@ricardoebbers5154 that's weird because you can't snort it, it metabolises in the liver not in the blood buddy, so it might have just gone down your throat slowly sounds nasty to me tasting it, you eat them snorting is weird kinda junkie style I don't get why TF people would snort drugs that can be taken orally, you look like a crackhead snorting pills
tramadol gave me really realistic lucid dreams where i wasnt sure if i was asleep in my bed or actually awake and just laying there, kinda like i could see my room with my eyes closed
You are awake but you are so tired and high at the same time you kinda nod out, I do this while playing games on the PC until late night and I nod out at the computer every few minutes, and it can feel kinda out of body
I just wana say Ive been a pretty responsible drug user. There are drugs I don’t like and drugs I will only try a couple of times. But this channel has helped tremendously on giving me an unbiased list of facts that give me what I need to tell if it’s worth it instead of me just trying it out and seeing what happens
From the far North West of Ireland - I have been taking Tramadol for years now. Maxitram 100mg capsules. Two capsules at night. I fractured my 3rd lumbar vertebra a few years ago. It's not so much painful now as stiff and it affects my mobility severely insomuch as I can only walk about 40 yards before I have to stop and rest a bit before repeating the process endlessly if I have somewhere to go. To be quite frank I am not really sure if these Tramadol pain relief capsules have any analgesic effect at all on me now being as I have been taking them for so long. I only know that about a year ago I stopped taking these capsules for two days and the withdrawal was truly dreadful. I actually felt that my body was trying to escape from my body. I know that sounds absurd and ridiculous but it is the only way I can describe how I felt at that time. I felt as if my body was trying to physically separate itself from my own body. Needless to say I quickly took the capsules again. I would have taken literally anything in front of me to stop the withdrawal pangs. So right now I trundle along with everyday life without ever wishing to experience anything like those withdrawal pangs again.
Thank you for your work and video presentation. I was prescribed tramadol post operative for pain management. I normally shy away from anything that can have mood altering effects and a brief look for potential side effects encourage me to carefully use the tramadol during recovery. I went seeking additional information and ran across your video, taking a few screenshots to send to my partner of the potential side effects and we agree in my blind test. As a meditation practitioner, I discovered on my own about "overtly daydreamy and euphoric" having confessed to her I had spent most of the day whisking her away into an all day adventure from my recovery bed, pain free with an intensely great mood. Your video has provided me with good information that I can use to better manage my use of this medication. Thank you and my girlfriend laughed saying she knows it's just not the medication.
They soooo exaggerate that "OMG you'll have a seizure if you have more than 400mg in 24 hours". I take up to 1150mg every day and never have I had a seizure.
Many people use over 400 mg without a seizure, but the vast majority of seizure reports occur over 400 mg, including by around 400 mg, hence the recommendation.
I had a friend who got a prescription of tramanol.. He took to many at once and collapse in his bathroom. Thank God his mom heard him hit the wall.. She called the ambulance and they saved his life.. Be very careful .
I take tramadol to reduce the side effects of my chemo (nausia, stomach pains and diarrhea) I discovered this by accident after a car crash, but now my doctor prescribes it purely for this reason.
I've been on Tramadol for backpain for a short while and for some reason... it felt too good. I was energetic, felt great and any hint of my normally pretty down mood was totally gone.
Same here. I discovered it when I was doing a job in a geological exploration camp in remote Tanzania when I had really bad Achilles tendonitis. I ran out of my analgesics and discovered tramadol in the medical kit. It enabled me to exercise the tendonitis away and I noticed it's anti-depresant effects. I am very prone to depressive episodes. I use it without ill effects to this day for mood control.
@Alexander lee i like kratom too, iv been off oxy for 3 years. Tramadol is pretty awesome too it's gives me a better mood lift than traditional opiates and I dont build a tolerance
@@ThaGVPSon you don't build a tolerance to tramadol? ha ha . it is dose and usage dependent , it is all a matter of time. 50mg once to twice a week will not bring a tolerance but 200mg to 1000mg per day WILL !!
Great video man, keep making these. Whenever I'm about to try something new I always watch your videos first. It's not a stretch to say you've saved a few lives :^)
Tramadol has kept my depression and debilitating grief at bay. Love it! Only 1/3 of a 50mg per day. Hits the sweet spot without the withdrawal of a miss a dose. It’s saving my life. 💖
All these people in the comments doing it to get High is the problem... and now the ones that actually have to take it for pain have to take drug tests to keep taking it so thx for that 😒. I take it for pain from an accident 6 years ago shattered leg 10 screw and a metal plate and 5 messed up disc’s in my spine. Great video btw I learned a lot I was curious if this pill was harming me or my organs.
Had a few after a minor surgery. First two times I took 75 mg and felt very little then I took 2 75 mg and made me very nauseous and relived pain. Afterwards I took one and I forgot to eat and definitely felt euphoric for a few hours
I took tramadol for 3 weeks. I always was in a good mood but at the same time I was extremely aggressive, it was really weird, but whilst on it, I liked it and welcomed my aggression, feeling good anyways. I‘m glad I don‘t take it anymore though
Great video!! I was wondering if you could do a video on CBD, I think it'll help educate the public on how it works and it's history as I've seen it being used to help; anxiety, depression, ADHD, preventing schizophrenia, and more. Cheers and keep up the good work.
A local hospital was giving liver transplant patients tramadol, and they had to stop the prescribing practice because of the high frequency of seizures in the patients. Seizures are a common reaction to liver transplants. Giving a patient who's predisposed to seizures tramadol for legal reasons will more likely harm than hurt the patient. Is that really better than prescribing oxycodone instead?
Gui Kirsch i can totally see seizures being a huge side effect. Gave me RLS, Depression, Anxiety. Fuck Tramadol. Just take hydro, oxy, or codiene or dont fuck with opioids at all. Fully synthetic medications have fucked up side effects
Tram is one of my favorites, the way it gives you a mental boost/rush while relaxing your body is something else. Like a better version of dxm or something...
I’ve been on the same dose since 2006 to control my chronic pain from Lyme disease. It definitely doesn’t work as well as it used to ( but that’s how tolerance works) but it allows me to function. But the withdrawals are hellish. Honestly, they’re worse than any withdrawal I’d experienced from Norco.
Having spoken to many Drs in Buckinghamshire in England about Tramadol affects esp withdrawal affects - I found every single one of them as TOTALLY CLUELESS!
@@AuroraNobreVasc i believe i might have done so but only one pill im not sure i forget but i think i could have popped the little handful i had, if i did its cuz i asked if u were able to n they told me should be able to but that was few years back
Great video! You should really post more often! I've been prescribed Tramadol and Lyrica for several years already but I was rarely taking it in order to avoid dependence. I am also prescribed Concerta which is fairly expensive and often in shortage here.
Tramadol had been amazing for me. Helps my neuropathy and I get every good side effect and no negative ones. I am concerned though. I have been taking it for a long time. Around 8 years. I go a week without it every now and again to hopefully curve ineffectiveness and addiction. Should I be worried about long term problems? I have developed some issues lately and often wondered is it's not from the use of this drug. It is the only drug I take period. I'm 29yo.
Tramadol fuckin kicks ass! I love the stuff, I take it every day for years & years & have had no problems with it whatsoever. Mood enhancing & great euphoria with VERY slow tolerance rising to it make it a #2 choice in ALL the medicines I have taken daily in the past.
I've used it recreationally, two times for a month, I loved it. It felt a bit like I was conscious while sleeping. Never felt so relaxed. I did not get addicted, and the only side effect I had was my body being itchy in the morning, but it was mild and not annoying (I took them before sleep).
I have been on Tramadol for nearly 13 years for pain. Long term Tramadol usage stops working as well and will cause bloating and gut problems, increasing pain and strange sensations in the arms and legs that makes you want to stretch constantly, keeping you awake all night. Tramadol long term is a bad idea. Tramadol withdrawal is awful.
I tried Tramadol many times before. Only when I were at a really low point in my life the effect was completely diffrent and the euphoria was insane. I became addicted for 8 months detoxed and never did it again. Be careful. Some people's bodys are just waiting for an Opioid
Bro, I was waiting for this next video, love the way you analyze this substances... about tramadol's effects and withdrawal symptoms: so similar to Cannabis(THC).
I had this IV shot on me when I was in hospital when I had severe stomach pain from ulcer.. I definitely felt relieved just few minutes after it was injected to me. I had been on pain for a few days but this is the only drug that relieved my pain. Side effect on me is just dizziness. Unfortunately, couldn't buy this without prescription. 😢
I took Ultram for a year while working for FedEx because it wasn't detected on a drug panel, made working from 7AM-11PM way easier, I felt like I had more strength, but it soon caused serious sleeping issues, swelling tongue and it caused really bad depression, suicidal thoughts etc. It can help but has some seriously weird side effects.
@@eddy-nd7nh They treated drivers like robots back then, now they are much better about breaking down deliveries on multiple routes but in 2015 it was rough.
What would guys say. I take one 50 mg a day. I ve been on it for 3 months.. works great for my fatigue and fibromyalgia . Would you say that contuining with this dose for year would be dangerous?
Tucker Aaron because you do not have real pain. People with chronic pain have pain everyday and left untreated they are 150x more likely to kill themselves than average person. U do not have real pain. And these should not be used recreationally because then idiots like u make it harder for vets like me that have been injured to get opiods we need including tramadol. So plz stay away from these medicine because u are a lil punk that never had real pain
@@thaspacegoatae3419 yeah i didnt mean to make it out as a physical addiction as you would get with alcohol or heroin but i was for sure psychologically dependent
I believe Tramadol is also used in biochem labs as a drug from which you are to derive different constitutional isomers and study there biological chemistry. Really interesting/complex drug overall
Saevitus Hang on Unless you try you don’t know It’s right It’s has less side effects than srris And srris don’t work If your suffering depression and anxiety Tramadol works And you can take it when needed As for srris 6-8 weeks If it does not work Then another 6-8 weeks So it’s not bullshit
Soap I agree to disagree I took tramadol for one month Depression gone 50 mg sr Now I take like 1 tablet a weeks 200 mg Brocken in 4 Tramadol isn’t addictive It’s the person who takes it is abusive
I have been on this medication since 2005 due to CNS disease successfully being a safe part of my treatment. Has kept the heavy controlled substances far away from me. So, I can be considered a long term patient. There’s no euphoria or recreational effects, I follow the instructions of my doctors and follow their pain contact protocols.
Thanks a trillion for repost / update - presently taking t.dol until my Rx deductible resets. TDC is such a super resource; even if yr science sections make me billion times more informed than my md or harmacist types. Cheers
Tramadol worked stopping pain entire day if I took it in the morning, actually I had to get minimum 4 hours sleep before the effect would stop. But it also gave the typical opioid side effect as slow thinking euphoria and sleepiness without falling asleep. I have now changed to Oxycodone 5mg, those only work for 6 hours stopping pain but is more effective and have less opioid side effects for me, feel not slow, sleepy or euphoric.
I have recently stumbled over a couple of articles in which it is claimed that tramadol (opioids in general) over time will damage the frontal lobe of the brain by breaking down gray and white matter. This in turn will lead to poor cognition. My source is The Brain and Behavior Foundation in NY. Thus, I am curious to know if any of you people here with a year-long history of opioid use still do as well at your jobs as you did prior to the opioid routine, or something that really cheers me up to hear, you do even better than before you started taking this drug. I am a bit worried myself as I am taking 50 mg tramadol a day 5-7 days a week.
I don’t understand most of it but I have first hand experience of this drug. I used it initially for neuropathic pain in my feet. It was effective where non opioid drugs were not of any use. I now have extreme back pain due to multiple fractures of vertebrae. It has lost its efficacy sadly and have been prescribed pain patches in addition to Tramadol.
Hello from Poland :). I love your channel man, finally value content about drugs. I was great user of clonazepam, other benzos and opioids, most heroin, morphine and codeine and tramadol. I was really deep addicted for 16 years, Ive had about 7 alnost lethal overdoses, with those sum was 1 or 2 accidental, cus i dont know dosage. Nów im on methadone and im clean. Keep it up, information about drugs is best method to fight with addiction. Peace man
I took two 50 mg of these and two 500 mg extra strength pain reliever yesterday and literally felt sooooo good lol my feet were tingling and I was walking around happy 😂
Good lord, do I love me some Tramadol! I can attest to it making you really irritable. The littlest thing can be so annoying. It can definitely cause insomnia, but it feels good enough that you don’t care.
I actually became incredibly addicted to this drug. I originally took it for back pain but soon it was recreational and self medicating. It actually ga e me an amazing sense of well-being and high from the opiate effects. I now take 10mg of buprenorphine daily instead and have not felt this good in years.
Never can understand how people can be bored…I don’t have enough hours in the day and need at least 6 more hours…I don’t even work but my work at home is based on responsibility , example of my day is 7:00 am start picking vegetables from the garden and precede to cook for 4 people, then feed about taking 20 feral cats, feeding and watering 7 German Shepard’s , watering my flowers in my yard, than at 11:00 am , go to the beach , swim 30 minutes , come home to start painting my antique furniture project, put the laundry on, than water the garden, eat lunch at 2: pm, clean everything , relax in bed for 1 hr, than go to the beach afternoon swim return for watering the vegetables garden and flowers , until 9 pm …you probably think I’m nuts but actually keeping busy keeps me sane
word, I once did 3000mg (yes three thousand) just to fucking see if this shit had any effect after several tries on normal doses, only thing that happened at all was immense constipation the day after. No benefits what so ever, opiods are weird. (was suicidal at that point of my life, don't worry though, my life is tremendous today😊)
@@bloodshed3523 maybe, I mean I didn't lab test them lol, but i have never managed to get a buzz of any opiod. But i did have a severe kratom addicton for like 6 months and that gave me all the effects opiods are supposed to, and withdrawal for that sake xD but no, i am a giant scandinavian though
@@TheKnutification don't EVER take 3000mg! I have a friend that did 500mg and passed out and lost his teeth when he fell + broke his jaw, had to get taken with a ambulance his heart stopped. It's a pain killer buddy it relaxes muscles and your heart is one big muscle I doubt it was real tramadol I do 200mg and I'm zooted nodding out when I'm also tired or combine with weed. It's insane that you did 3000 and survived good it wasent real Tramadol, promise me that you never take drugs without research on dose etc etc.
Methadone is a horrible drug I was given it for pain for 9 years. Rotted all my teeth and gave me osteoporosis Spent 50k$ to fix my teeth. Had to go inpatient for 4 months to detox off 240mg What a devil of a drug
@@newyorkmedicalmarijuana4711 mate methadone ain't a pain killer tho and 240 daily is the most dose I've ever heard of and I'm a herion user and know lots of other users.no wonder you had trouble at that dose I'm surprised you didn't die on your first 240ml dose.wow man 240.crazy mate.
I experimented with tramadol last year. Let me tell you, it was 10 hours of pure bliss. I started off at 100mg, didn’t feel much. 200 and music sounded and felt great, I felt pleasantly drowsy but not sedated and stayed up all night. 300mg was just pure euphoria. Tramadol, to me, is 100x better than oxycodone and hydrocodone. Still got nauseous asf tho 👌🏼
Nausea was there the first month after that I felt normal no more nausea when taking them, once in a while. I take them on empty stomach then first eat after I have taken them like right after before they hit.
virtual-adam Not really. By itself it is a waste of time for a lot but even then it offers a bit of euphoria by itself probably because I am a good metabolizer for it.
@@Uhhhhhyeahuhhhh Well yes if you are a good metabolizer with high levels of CYP2D6 (lucky bastards) then its quite a good effect, I've had some moderately enjoyable times on it even without Diazepam. What I meant is the effect is waste of time and goes nowhere, opium is a much more fulfilling and has more to offer. Tramadol is a bit too synthetic for me, but each to their own. Tapentadol is supposed to be a better version of Tramadol as its not a pro-drug, but probably has more side effects.
@@mickhal1681 i can't stop rise my dose up and i can't take it for much longer it has been 6 years with it, the withdrowl was from hell and after 1 year of being clean it make my ocd and depression 1000 time worse after i stop taking it
In my country it is commercialized in both capsules and drops forms. My doctor prescribes 10 drops in the morning and 10 drops in the early afternoon. That makes 50mg. I only take every time I have those horrible back aches together with 10 mg Valium (diazepam) in the evening. In about a week I can fully function again. I have about 10 such episodes a year. That combination is a godsend. No negative side effects. It slightly lifts my mood while I am in pain which makes pain more managable. I just try to eat lots of fiber and coffee while I am taking it to counteract constipation. All in all I would give it a 9 since it is obviously not perfect, but still pretty amazing.
Tramadol stacked with a benzo relieves alcohol withdrawal well. But I recommend professional care if you’re having hardcore DT’s. Nonetheless if you’re up a tree really bad after a multi -day bender, 100mg Tramadol and 1-5 mg of Ativan or Xanax will cut the cramps , pain, shakes and once the stack kicks in, get under fresh warm blankets. Tramadol and at least 2mg of a benzo will dramatically ease the pain and warming your body/ muscles helps immensely. If you are going through hell w/ alcohol DT’s 99/100 ER’s will hydrate you, get Ativan into you intravenously and prescribe Librium (another old school type of Benzo). Almost all hospitals indicate Ativan or Librium for DT’s and it is NOT due to compassionate care but rather as anti-seizure protocol. If you get a hardline doctor, just mention the word “seizures” and you’ll most likely get the script. Once you’re back to level do the right thing and STOP the behavior that got you there in the first place. There are only so many ghetto passes in each of us. 🙏🏻❤️
I was just prescribed Tramadol with only the knowledge of being an opioid but when I saw the notification, I was so happy to receive this :)
xD chicken they make me wanna throw up at first but once I get over it I'll take like 200 mg and I'm good
xD chicken Be care how you use it ... withdrawal is HELL.
@@elizabeths7700 not tryna be /that/ guy, but tramadol withdrawal is incredibly mild and takes weeks of daily use to build dependance. the more you know!!👏🙏👍
+Arthur Porter Hey Arthur! No offense taken in any form 😊
+Arthur Porter Hey there. No offense taken but thank you anyway for not being the other type of guy we often see. I was on 150mg daily of Tramadol for years due to chronic pain ... there were times when I took 150mg XR x2 daily. And one day out of the blue, it stopped working. Just like that. My new GP didn't wean me off because I was taking Cymbalta as well ... the two drugs show major contra-indications. I went into full hellish withdrawal for weeks on end ... drug craving, heightened depression, anxiety to name a few ... I will never forgive him for putting me through this. From my perspective, Drs aren't fully aware of the dangers and addiction potential. I later did some research and only found one study (if it can be called that) relating to a lady in the US or UK entering an emergency facily in full-blown withrawal aka Drug Discontinuation Syndrome. I would cite the source if I could remember it, but I can't. Perhaps search Tramadol + DDSyndrome. As I said, I only found one article unfortunately. Tramadol is a good drug for moderate-severe pain if used sparingly IMHO. The other problem relates to misuse. I understand that misuse is currently problematical in India. But anyway, that (in brief) was my experience of this drug. Maybe one day I'll use it again ... maybe. Thank you for responding! ✌☺

When I was prescribed Tramadol. It made life much more easier. Work was a blast. It help me enjoy my boring job. It also made me not care about others feelings. Which was something I needed at the time.
I started with 50mg a day. But after awhile I was at 500mg a day. I was hooked. It took me awhile to get off it. I finally told my doctor I was an addict to it. She was upset but was proud I told her lol
@@powerhousepaperairplanesrogers Nice
i have so much respect for you and what you're doing, man. The way you responded to my political nag on one of your videos recently just showed how you have CLASS (as in you won't just flame some random nerd because they didn't check the date on your videos) and it serves to, dare I say, PROVE, that you're willing to learn and accept new information all while being polite, earnest and respectful. A genuine, well-intentioned and nice human. Easily the most important traits a content creator could have in this field, by a country mile. Especially when you get into things in the community like elitism and stereotypical peer-pressuring to dose higher. As a 7 year opioid addict and decade-long drug-enthusiest, I can say I recommend your videos _so_ often when people ask me questions about drugs and drug combinations that it's kinda insane. And while I promote harm reduction, self-awareness and restraint because I don't want anyone else to go down the path of opioid dependance that I did, even if I don't think it's something that should influence the way you view someone who you may have found out to be an opioid user. We're just like everyone else! It's just our u-Opioid receptors need a lil more lovin'! If ANYONE ever needs any info on specifically opioid harm reduction and practice, from a 1st hand perspective, feel free to hit me up any time! I wish I had someone with knowledge like our boy Seth when I started my psychoactive journey. And SETH if you ever wanna talk to the archetypal, stereotypical face of the US Opipid "Epidemic", holla at me! I have been through it all - rehab, inpatient, outpatient, halfway houses, methadone maintenance, suboxone, relapse, all of it. Sorry for the rant - been using adderall to be able to get through my 10 hour shifts at work without wanting to end my own life haha
Thanks for the nice comment and for sharing the content with others! It's really great to hear you view TDC that way. If you want to talk feel free to email me, seth@thedrugclassroom.com
Hello, have you ever addressed anyone with chronic pain, that uses heavy meds? Do you have any advice for someone with chronic pain, but not necessarily an "addict" ?
He feels as thought he will be branded an addict if he seeks help within the AA arena. Any advice? If your still out there?
Thank you!

i find after 20+ years of daily usage of prescribed Tramadol 400mg per day , that it is a miracle drug , that effects the body in so many positive ways at once compared to other opiates or mild antidepressants .
But the positive benefits of pain release, mood improvement, numbing of penis , energy boast , all disappear over several months of usage . unless i up the dosage to over seizure levels . "2000mg in one go"
The cup of coffee makes all the difference!
So is tramadol + cup of coffee
Exactly
A friend of mine had a seizure from tramadol. I was dependent on it, up to 15-20 50 mg pills a day, it has gross withdrawals, like opioid wds mixed with anti-depressant wds, a gross feeling for sure. Sexual effects were exactly as you described, very difficult to orgasm. I'm SO glad I have been done with opioids since Oct. 2015.
Tramadol a particular horrid withdrawal of those I've experienced. It's up there with Xanax cold turkey. It's not to be played with.
tell your friend to stop self-medicating, seizures are known to happen at over 400mg....
Oh my god friend. I saw this years ago and I figured out that it was super addicting because you had the opioid addiction and you had the serotonin re-release uptake inhibitors addiction. I figured this would be a fatal addiction because a person would be hooked both things and if you couldn't get tramadol exactly like you had got you would not be able to feel you receptors for the serotonin and for the opiate. I'll pray for you kid God bless you and good luck staying away.
The Wd lasted months. Ringing in head, depression, flu like symptoms. Sucked horrible
I love this channel so much. These are the kinds of lessons schools need to be teaching about drugs, not the typical biased bullshit that's been outdated for years now.

I've never met anyone that abused Tramadol before I met my sister in law. She would take up to twenty in one day before we kept her in check and me along with my wife had to step in and keep her doses within a reasonable range. The day she ate thirty one time and we were surprised that she didn't die that day. Got her down to 3 every two days within a short period, and she is now off completely. She was nodding out on my couch and would get defensive when we'd wake her up. The day we stepped in was when she spilled her medication all over my couch and I was the only one who notice. She had been using it for years and had gotten really bad the past year. Now she's sober aside from her mj card, that I felt she should transition to. Psychedelics helped me get completely sober myself. Stay positive people and help your friends!
I got 15 per day the highest and my kidneys were starting to get damaged . I'm glad to hear she's sober now .
Just discovered you..this analysis is singularly the most accurate I have ever encountered for Tramadol and a shining example of all that is good about the internet - content creators of the world take note, THIS IS HOW YOU DO IT! In one go you have earned my highest praise, dedicated attention and five effing stars - you will doubtlessly succeed if this is any example. Thank you sir
Agreed. I've used Tramadol on and off for years for chronic lower back pain and everything he talks about in this video is dead-on accurate.
My experience shows me that 2 out of 5 truly get something out of it. But for those 2 individuals, they are very, very happy they took it!
Yup the drug was amazing for me the nicest warmest feeling of euphoria and well being with 0 negative effects lol - About 2 / 5 people I gave some to enjoyed it so yeah that sounds correct.
Same, I actually remember Tramadol more fondly than even heroin, it was the greatest and at the same time most gentle high I've ever experienced, and the most well balanced, with absolutely zero side effects, in fact I always had that all day long antidepressant afterglow mellow energy the following day after using the evening before..

@@titianmom Well it isn't fake happiness, its more unearned happiness, and anything un-earned will eventually be paid for. It served its purpose by giving me peace when I needed it, now that I'm healed I must never take it again.
@@amiryousef2153 I’m in back pain from a crushed disc right now. I’ll go ahead and take that “fake happiness”, but really it ends up feeling normal.
I take tramadol as a pain killer for menstrual cramps. I’ve always had severe cramps and Advil never did the job. Finally my doctor prescribed me this and it’s been a saving grace lmao also an upside that after the pain subsides, it keeps working and I’m the most relaxed I’ve ever been
I have some tramadol for pain. I also have severe clinical depression. I've seen little effect from any of the dozen anti depressants I've tried but Tramadol makes me feel great. Not high mind you, but great. I can think clearer, feel better, no anger issues or mood swings. Sadly, it has a minimal effect on the pinched nerves in my neck or arm. Cool thing is the antidepressant effect lasts 8-10 hours even though the pain reliving part only lasts about 4. Now if I can get put on an SNRI that works as well as Tramadol without the opiate issue.
Damn i thought i was the only one for who it doesn’t work for c7 pinched nerve.
Exactly same as you, it did work sometimes, but at higher doses and can suddenly stop working one minute after. Weird drug..
How long did you pinched nerve last? I’m currently on ketoprofene and tramadol, already 8 weeks
Mirtazapine
Effexor and Tramadol are the closest in terms of similar effects regarding the SNRI activity, duration of action and side effect profile. I'm on Pristiq, basically a major metabolite of Effexor and it's a really good one at least for me
Tramadol taken with any antidepressant can and will cause serotonin syndrome! Which can kill you. Doctors don’t seem to know this for some reason.
Been taking this for years. I take a max of 50mg a day, never more than that, taking half in the morning and half in the evening. it really helps me with my mood and gives an energy boost
Is that 25 mg twice a day
Crazy I don't feel effect from even 50mg, I need atleast 100 for very little effect and at 150mg I can feel it
@@Juuk-D same , but i only feel 400mg + per day . 50mg is like taking a sugar pill for daily pain patients

I went through a detox with a guy who had a tramadol problem, he used to take it for is bowels dissease... he had a hard time coming off it, they just lowert his dose each time.

Works amazing for pain and depression.
Tom A two things I'm suffering from, my friend broke his nose and he was prescribed pill 319 "50mg tram" he gave me 3 left over pills I took one before my Bowling league because my back is just beyond fucked right now , not only did my back and nagging pains elsewhere in my body feel relieved and loose my mental out look was incredible, it was one of the better days I've had physically and mentally relative to what I've been experiencing
@@Haryazz Well it is also an SNRI, same class of drugs like Venlafaxine (Effexor)
I have been prescribed tramadol for a chronic pain condition the last 4 years. I used to get a small buzz of euphoria when taking 100 mg rapid release - but that was years ago. I take a delayed release 100 mg capsule every 12 hours and it takes the edge of the pains - but increasing dosage is not more effective. If I stop taking them I get brain noise - like electric jolts through my head and I feel cold and get goosebumps. So yes it can be addictive.It has very little value as a recreational drug and I do not recommend taking more than 400 mg daily
niller2006 look into kratom, fuk those pills
@@vwluvin9164 i agree, tramadol is like a shitty a codeine in strength. Atleast kratom gets you off a little from 3-5 grams
@@regretamin3689 lol yeah people be acting like kratoms a cup of coffee if you can keep down 7gs you'll be about nodding 😂
@Brandon Lester yes sound very similar. Tramodol actually works a bit like a SNRI anti-depressant too so the withdrawal side effects are similar too. Methadone is a very strong opioid that can be used as a painkiller or as substitution treatment for opioid addiction - I once took a dosage recreationally and I overdosed since I did not know the strength of the liquid form of methadone. I nearly stopped breathing and it was a scary experience. Take care
I feel the Withdrawls symptoms only in my legs nowhere else.
Fun fact: in Mexico you can buy tramadol without a prescription.
Here in Chile you need a prescription but if you go to a farmers market, you can find people selling it like it's nothing
try indonesia🙄
And sooo cheap
Can’t you also just get oxycodone as well?
You can get anything in Mexico without a prescription.
Tried tramadol on monday and went to class on it, i swear to god that help me a lot with my ADHD, but then i started to fall asleep
It helps me alot in class too but when i don't take it I don't feel like going to class so I have to let it go
did you snort it? bc i did and i fk loved it
I did most of my university on opiods for learning. started always taking 2 weeks before the 2 weeks we had all our tests, took a little bit longer for pleasure until the end of semester break and then kicked it again.... Worked at the beginning pretty good. Later not so much because the euphoria wasnt there anymore. Was pretty addicted at the end but I took all kinds of Opiods I could get my hands on.
@@ricardoebbers5154 that's weird because you can't snort it, it metabolises in the liver not in the blood buddy, so it might have just gone down your throat slowly sounds nasty to me tasting it, you eat them snorting is weird kinda junkie style I don't get why TF people would snort drugs that can be taken orally, you look like a crackhead snorting pills
@@Juuk-D no we bought these capsules where it was powder if oyu know what i mean so if you open them you can snort it
tramadol gave me really realistic lucid dreams where i wasnt sure if i was asleep in my bed or actually awake and just laying there, kinda like i could see my room with my eyes closed
That's the typical opioid nod, been there several times. It is not a lucid dream
I was like that last night I took 6 or 7 of them with a beer
how much did you do?
@@idrinkjuice4204 dont take opioids with alcohol.
You are awake but you are so tired and high at the same time you kinda nod out, I do this while playing games on the PC until late night and I nod out at the computer every few minutes, and it can feel kinda out of body
I just wana say Ive been a pretty responsible drug user. There are drugs I don’t like and drugs I will only try a couple of times. But this channel has helped tremendously on giving me an unbiased list of facts that give me what I need to tell if it’s worth it instead of me just trying it out and seeing what happens
From the far North West of Ireland - I have been taking Tramadol for years now. Maxitram 100mg capsules. Two capsules at night. I fractured my 3rd lumbar vertebra a few years ago. It's not so much painful now as stiff and it affects my mobility severely insomuch as I can only walk about 40 yards before I have to stop and rest a bit before repeating the process endlessly if I have somewhere to go. To be quite frank I am not really sure if these Tramadol pain relief capsules have any analgesic effect at all on me now being as I have been taking them for so long. I only know that about a year ago I stopped taking these capsules for two days and the withdrawal was truly dreadful. I actually felt that my body was trying to escape from my body. I know that sounds absurd and ridiculous but it is the only way I can describe how I felt at that time. I felt as if my body was trying to physically separate itself from my own body. Needless to say I quickly took the capsules again. I would have taken literally anything in front of me to stop the withdrawal pangs. So right now I trundle along with everyday life without ever wishing to experience anything like those withdrawal pangs again.
What you are suffering with is called Bonus Eruptus. The skeleton tries to leap out of the body through the mouth.
Thank you for your work and video presentation. I was prescribed tramadol post operative for pain management. I normally shy away from anything that can have mood altering effects and a brief look for potential side effects encourage me to carefully use the tramadol during recovery. I went seeking additional information and ran across your video, taking a few screenshots to send to my partner of the potential side effects and we agree in my blind test. As a meditation practitioner, I discovered on my own about "overtly daydreamy and euphoric" having confessed to her I had spent most of the day whisking her away into an all day adventure from my recovery bed, pain free with an intensely great mood. Your video has provided me with good information that I can use to better manage my use of this medication. Thank you and my girlfriend laughed saying she knows it's just not the medication.
They soooo exaggerate that "OMG you'll have a seizure if you have more than 400mg in 24 hours". I take up to 1150mg every day and never have I had a seizure.
Many people use over 400 mg without a seizure, but the vast majority of seizure reports occur over 400 mg, including by around 400 mg, hence the recommendation.
I took a 400 mg dose (8 50mg pills at once) during my break at the Job. I kept wanting to vomit but I would just swallow it back
Everybody is different,never forget that!😊
I had a friend who got a prescription of tramanol.. He took to many at once and collapse in his bathroom. Thank God his mom heard him hit the wall.. She called the ambulance and they saved his life.. Be very careful .
I take tramadol to reduce the side effects of my chemo (nausia, stomach pains and diarrhea)
I discovered this by accident after a car crash, but now my doctor prescribes it purely for this reason.
Seth, it's so amazingly satisfying to see how far you've come with this channel. I want to do this kind of work now.
I can say from firsthand experience that everything in this video is true...from the mental and physical effects to the side effects.
I've been on Tramadol for backpain for a short while and for some reason... it felt too good. I was energetic, felt great and any hint of my normally pretty down mood was totally gone.
Same here. I discovered it when I was doing a job in a geological exploration camp in remote Tanzania when I had really bad Achilles tendonitis. I ran out of my analgesics and discovered tramadol in the medical kit. It enabled me to exercise the tendonitis away and I noticed it's anti-depresant effects. I am very prone to depressive episodes. I use it without ill effects to this day for mood control.

All these people in the comments doing it to get High is the problem... and now the ones that actually have to take it for pain have to take drug tests to keep taking it so thx for that 😒. I take it for pain from an accident 6 years ago shattered leg 10 screw and a metal plate and 5 messed up disc’s in my spine. Great video btw I learned a lot I was curious if this pill was harming me or my organs.
Yes its harming everything in your body kidneys end up collapsing first then everything else:(
Had a few after a minor surgery. First two times I took 75 mg and felt very little then I took 2 75 mg and made me very nauseous and relived pain. Afterwards I took one and I forgot to eat and definitely felt euphoric for a few hours
I took tramadol for 3 weeks. I always was in a good mood but at the same time I was extremely aggressive, it was really weird, but whilst on it, I liked it and welcomed my aggression, feeling good anyways. I‘m glad I don‘t take it anymore though
Great video!! I was wondering if you could do a video on CBD, I think it'll help educate the public on how it works and it's history as I've seen it being used to help; anxiety, depression, ADHD, preventing schizophrenia, and more. Cheers and keep up the good work.
A local hospital was giving liver transplant patients tramadol, and they had to stop
the prescribing practice because of the high frequency of seizures in the patients. Seizures are a common reaction to liver transplants.
Giving a patient who's predisposed to seizures tramadol for legal reasons will more likely harm than hurt the patient. Is that really better than prescribing oxycodone instead?
Gui Kirsch i can totally see seizures being a huge side effect. Gave me RLS, Depression, Anxiety. Fuck Tramadol. Just take hydro, oxy, or codiene or dont fuck with opioids at all. Fully synthetic medications have fucked up side effects
Gui Kirsch no apart from the abuse potential and addictive qualities oxycodone is a fairly clean and safe drug when taken in a medical setting.
First drug to see all the comments loves it this much
First time trying tramadol, very nice feeling of relaxation but its subtle
Tram is one of my favorites, the way it gives you a mental boost/rush while relaxing your body is something else.
Like a better version of dxm or something...
I’ve been on the same dose since 2006 to control my chronic pain from Lyme disease. It definitely doesn’t work as well as it used to ( but that’s how tolerance works) but it allows me to function.

Tramadol had been amazing for me. Helps my neuropathy and I get every good side effect and no negative ones. I am concerned though. I have been taking it for a long time. Around 8 years. I go a week without it every now and again to hopefully curve ineffectiveness and addiction. Should I be worried about long term problems? I have developed some issues lately and often wondered is it's not from the use of this drug. It is the only drug I take period. I'm 29yo.
Tramadol fuckin kicks ass! I love the stuff, I take it every day for years & years & have had no problems with it whatsoever. Mood enhancing & great euphoria with VERY slow tolerance rising to it make it a #2 choice in ALL the medicines I have taken daily in the past.
I've used it recreationally, two times for a month, I loved it. It felt a bit like I was conscious while sleeping. Never felt so relaxed. I did not get addicted, and the only side effect I had was my body being itchy in the morning, but it was mild and not annoying (I took them before sleep).
I have been on Tramadol for nearly 13 years for pain. Long term Tramadol usage stops working as well and will cause bloating and gut problems, increasing pain and strange sensations in the arms and legs that makes you want to stretch constantly, keeping you awake all night. Tramadol long term is a bad idea. Tramadol withdrawal is awful.
I tried Tramadol many times before. Only when I were at a really low point in my life the effect was completely diffrent and the euphoria was insane. I became addicted for 8 months detoxed and never did it again. Be careful. Some people's bodys are just waiting for an Opioid
Bro, I was waiting for this next video, love the way you analyze this substances... about tramadol's effects and withdrawal symptoms: so similar to Cannabis(THC).
I had this IV shot on me when I was in hospital when I had severe stomach pain from ulcer.. I definitely felt relieved just few minutes after it was injected to me.

@@thaspacegoatae3419 yeah i didnt mean to make it out as a physical addiction as you would get with alcohol or heroin but i was for sure psychologically dependent
I believe Tramadol is also used in biochem labs as a drug from which you are to derive different constitutional isomers and study there biological chemistry. Really interesting/complex drug overall
tramadol should be legally known as an antidepressant without the risks that other Ssri antidepressants give as side effects
that's stupid, it has even more risks that regular ssri's, stop spouting bullshit when you have no clue about a topic.
Saevitus
Hang on
Unless you try you don’t know
It’s right
It’s has less side effects than srris
And srris don’t work
If your suffering depression and anxiety
Tramadol works
And you can take it when needed
As for srris
6-8 weeks
If it does not work
Then another 6-8 weeks
So it’s not bullshit
Highly addictive!!!!!!!
i agree that it does help with depression, but is very abusable and the withdrawals give you depression
Soap
I agree to disagree
I took tramadol for one month
Depression gone
50 mg sr
Now I take like 1 tablet a weeks 200 mg Brocken in 4
Tramadol isn’t addictive
It’s the person who takes it is abusive
I have been on this medication since 2005 due to CNS disease successfully being a safe part of my treatment. Has kept the heavy controlled substances far away from me. So, I can be considered a long term patient. There’s no euphoria or recreational effects, I follow the instructions of my doctors and follow their pain contact protocols.
Thanks a trillion for repost / update - presently taking t.dol until my Rx deductible resets.
TDC is such a super resource; even if yr science sections make me billion times more informed than my md or harmacist types.
Cheers
Tramadol worked stopping pain entire day if I took it in the morning, actually I had to get minimum 4 hours sleep before the effect would stop. But it also gave the typical opioid side effect as slow thinking euphoria and sleepiness without falling asleep. I have now changed to Oxycodone 5mg, those only work for 6 hours stopping pain but is more effective and have less opioid side effects for me, feel not slow, sleepy or euphoric.
Treats my pain but causes very unpleasant, vivid dreams every night.
True as fuck
I have recently stumbled over a couple of articles in which it is claimed that tramadol (opioids in general) over time will damage the frontal lobe of the brain by breaking down gray and white matter. This in turn will lead to poor cognition. My source is The Brain and Behavior Foundation in NY. Thus, I am curious to know if any of you people here with a year-long history of opioid use still do as well at your jobs as you did prior to the opioid routine, or something that really cheers me up to hear, you do even better than before you started taking this drug. I am a bit worried myself as I am taking 50 mg tramadol a day 5-7 days a week.
I always loved tramadol, always made me feel amazing. I must have been one to metabolize it well.
YES SAME HERE
I don’t understand most of it but I have first hand experience of this drug. I used it initially for neuropathic pain in my feet. It was effective where non opioid drugs were not of any use. I now have extreme back pain due to multiple fractures of vertebrae. It has lost its efficacy sadly and have been prescribed pain patches in addition to Tramadol.
It also stops metadone working if you are on methadone you risk opioid withdrawal
Hello from Poland :). I love your channel man, finally value content about drugs. I was great user of clonazepam, other benzos and opioids, most heroin, morphine and codeine and tramadol. I was really deep addicted for 16 years, Ive had about 7 alnost lethal overdoses, with those sum was 1 or 2 accidental, cus i dont know dosage. Nów im on methadone and im clean. Keep it up, information about drugs is best method to fight with addiction. Peace man
I took two 50 mg of these and two 500 mg extra strength pain reliever yesterday and literally felt sooooo good lol my feet were tingling and I was walking around happy 😂
Bottle flip & other stuff :D
I wish you would do a story on methadone please
Good lord, do I love me some Tramadol!
I can attest to it making you really irritable. The littlest thing can be so annoying. It can definitely cause insomnia, but it feels good enough that you don’t care.
Great video on Tramadol! If anyone would like more info on the history of the drug, I just posted a video about it. Love your channel, drug classroom!
I actually became incredibly addicted to this drug. I originally took it for back pain but soon it was recreational and self medicating. It actually ga e me an amazing sense of well-being and high from the opiate effects. I now take 10mg of buprenorphine daily instead and have not felt this good in years.
@@JasonMcNally
Is buprenorphine also helping you?
U cover way more then people usually do
makes boredom more interesting.
Add some music and you are good to go.
Never can understand how people can be bored…I don’t have enough hours in the day and need at least 6 more hours…I don’t even work but my work at home is based on responsibility , example of my day is 7:00 am start picking vegetables from the garden and precede to cook for 4 people, then feed about taking 20 feral cats, feeding and watering 7 German Shepard’s , watering my flowers in my yard, than at 11:00 am , go to the beach , swim 30 minutes , come home to start painting my antique furniture project, put the laundry on, than water the garden, eat lunch at 2: pm, clean everything , relax in bed for 1 hr, than go to the beach afternoon swim return for watering the vegetables garden and flowers , until 9 pm …you probably think I’m nuts but actually keeping busy keeps me sane
I take 50mg four times a day for chronic back pain and Lyrical 50mg at night for neuropathy and they do a good job 👏
I felt almost nothing from 350mg, but couldn’t piss for ages. The waking dream states were pretty intense for me ... only thing I got from it
word, I once did 3000mg (yes three thousand) just to fucking see if this shit had any effect after several tries on normal doses, only thing that happened at all was immense constipation the day after. No benefits what so ever, opiods are weird. (was suicidal at that point of my life, don't worry though, my life is tremendous today😊)
Anders Gemkvist 3000? bro you got some fake trammies cause 3000 would turn your brain to mush lmao
@@bloodshed3523 maybe, I mean I didn't lab test them lol, but i have never managed to get a buzz of any opiod. But i did have a severe kratom addicton for like 6 months and that gave me all the effects opiods are supposed to, and withdrawal for that sake xD but no, i am a giant scandinavian though
@@TheKnutification don't EVER take 3000mg! I have a friend that did 500mg and passed out and lost his teeth when he fell + broke his jaw, had to get taken with a ambulance his heart stopped. It's a pain killer buddy it relaxes muscles and your heart is one big muscle I doubt it was real tramadol I do 200mg and I'm zooted nodding out when I'm also tired or combine with weed. It's insane that you did 3000 and survived good it wasent real Tramadol, promise me that you never take drugs without research on dose etc etc.
@@TheKnutification those mustve been fake man, you wouldve been dead
Great video. Very helpful information
Hlo
I know that someone already commented this, but please do Methadone! 😊👍 Thank you!
Methadone is a horrible drug
I was given it for pain for 9 years. Rotted all my teeth and gave me osteoporosis
Spent 50k$ to fix my teeth.
Had to go inpatient for 4 months to detox off 240mg
What a devil of a drug
Methadone is verry strong opioid .. euphoria 2 hour and sleeping 5 hours... not better
@@newyorkmedicalmarijuana4711 mate methadone ain't a pain killer tho and 240 daily is the most dose I've ever heard of and I'm a herion user and know lots of other users.no wonder you had trouble at that dose I'm surprised you didn't die on your first 240ml dose.wow man 240.crazy mate.
I experimented with tramadol last year. Let me tell you, it was 10 hours of pure bliss. I started off at 100mg, didn’t feel much. 200 and music sounded and felt great, I felt pleasantly drowsy but not sedated and stayed up all night. 300mg was just pure euphoria. Tramadol, to me, is 100x better than oxycodone and hydrocodone. Still got nauseous asf tho 👌🏼
just take some promethazine with it, you can. Buy it over the counter. Stop iching and nausea
Nausea was there the first month after that I felt normal no more nausea when taking them, once in a while. I take them on empty stomach then first eat after I have taken them like right after before they hit.
300 mg is the magic dose
Mercy me I used to binge on those and watch anime all night, what a waste of my twenties.
Missed your last livestream, stuck at work 😢. I hope you get to phenibut soon...
the Tramadol high isn's that special if you dont boost with a fat THC joint yadiiig
I plan on that tonight!
@@Adamisgood24 yeah it is massage deluxe but dont take it more than 2-3 days inarow , you dont wanna get addicted :D
On its own not that recreational, but with Diazepam its lovely. Still a waste of time though.
virtual-adam Not really. By itself it is a waste of time for a lot but even then it offers a bit of euphoria by itself probably because I am a good metabolizer for it.
@@Uhhhhhyeahuhhhh Well yes if you are a good metabolizer with high levels of CYP2D6 (lucky bastards) then its quite a good effect, I've had some moderately enjoyable times on it even without Diazepam. What I meant is the effect is waste of time and goes nowhere, opium is a much more fulfilling and has more to offer. Tramadol is a bit too synthetic for me, but each to their own. Tapentadol is supposed to be a better version of Tramadol as its not a pro-drug, but probably has more side effects.
Tramadol was the most euphoria ive ever felt for an extended period of time.
Tramadol is great if you don’t abuse it
Helped my depression disappear
The key is control
you can't don't abuse it, i abuse it for years till i stoped it
Mercyful Fate
What we’re you taking it for
@@mickhal1681 depression
Mercyful Fate
So why stop
Would you not prefer feeling good
@@mickhal1681 i can't stop rise my dose up and i can't take it for much longer it has been 6 years with it, the withdrowl was from hell and after 1 year of being clean it make my ocd and depression 1000 time worse after i stop taking it
In my country it is commercialized in both capsules and drops forms.
My doctor prescribes 10 drops in the morning and 10 drops in the early afternoon. That makes 50mg. I only take every time I have those horrible back aches together with 10 mg Valium (diazepam) in the evening. In about a week I can fully function again. I have about 10 such episodes a year. That combination is a godsend. No negative side effects. It slightly lifts my mood while I am in pain which makes pain more managable. I just try to eat lots of fiber and coffee while I am taking it to counteract constipation.
All in all I would give it a 9 since it is obviously not perfect, but still pretty amazing.
Tramadol is amazing and always will be. Love it!
I think thats the problem...
I am going to try a 50 mg for my depression.
If you think tramadol is nice, try codeine or hydrocodone.
idkdrew
No not for depression
Tttt Fff
I tried it for depression
And let me say this
Gone gone gone
No depression 💪
my mom got prescribed one of these pills for a minor surgery a few months ago and she seemed to be having a really good time when she got home lol
Almost at 100K!
Hell yeah
Take tramadol as needed for pelvic pain and it helps so much. Only downside is I can’t take it at work obviously and I get nauseous
"which can be good for those with premature ejaculation, and annoying for almost everyone else" hahahaha sorry guys
Take with Cialis & hit that shit all night!
I literally had the longest sex when I took these it got annoying after while 😂
my gf made me cum on Trams. She's a Keeper 😂
Lmaooo it makes sex hurt way less so it lets me go longer and let the dude do more
mixed gal you need a white guy;-)
Tramadol stacked with a benzo relieves alcohol withdrawal well. But I recommend professional care if you’re having hardcore DT’s. Nonetheless if you’re up a tree really bad after a multi -day bender, 100mg Tramadol and 1-5 mg of Ativan or Xanax will cut the cramps , pain, shakes and once the stack kicks in, get under fresh warm blankets. Tramadol and at least 2mg of a benzo will dramatically ease the pain and warming your body/ muscles helps immensely. If you are going through hell w/ alcohol DT’s 99/100 ER’s will hydrate you, get Ativan into you intravenously and prescribe Librium (another old school type of Benzo). Almost all hospitals indicate Ativan or Librium for DT’s and it is NOT due to compassionate care but rather as anti-seizure protocol. If you get a hardline doctor, just mention the word “seizures” and you’ll most likely get the script. Once you’re back to level do the right thing and STOP the behavior that got you there in the first place. There are only so many ghetto passes in each of us. 🙏🏻❤️
I believe, my personal opinion, that tramadol would easily replace an antidepressant or benzodiazepine, but it depends very much on the dosage
thanks for like others
bibanu28 dumitru
I agree
I take it for depression
And now I feel depressed free
What do I understand after all? Has it helped you or not?
bibanu28 dumitru
Yes
That’s what I said
I’m depressed free from tramadol
I understood, one thousand, it makes me super ok at the cerebellum, in the dose of 250 mg without tlenol
Thank you for that mass of information. Be well!
I loved to combine Tramadol with DHC or Codein. It's a nice, euphoric combination.
Really?? Tramal + codeine gives euphoria?? O have both but never mix them...Are you sure the result will be high?? (euphoria)??? Please, reply to me
@@gyrostzatziki4348 no shit. Codeine has a nice buzz.
This some good stuff to study for a PTCB exam. Guess you don't call this the drug classroom for nothing.
