I know how opiates work, I suffered through that addiction for years. Tramadol is different. Tramadol should be taken off the market. Sure, they will get ya high, but it's not a high you will enjoy. And the dreams... Jesus Christ the dreams they gave me. No thanks. We are eternal... All this pain is an illusion |

Sounds nuts but it's true. Quoting: janedoenut I understand the theory, certainly - the more pain you are in the less effective the drug, because it needs to be at a level to combat the pain. So you use MORE, to get a similar masking effect. And I'm not judging from that respect, but the argument that "you don't get high if you use for pain" is patently untrue... if you didn't get "high," the drug wouldn't fulfill it's intended purpose. For background, this is mostly about refuting someone else's foolishness... plus it's my Friday so I'm having a bit of fun :) Welcome!

And it didn't do squat for the pain. Cannot even imaging taking enough to get addicted to, but everyone experiences drugs differently. I'd feel way safer with a genuine opiate which does actually relieve the pain. When you know up front it's addictive, you come in prepared. More deplorable all the time. |

samuraistuart User ID: 76730447 United States 12/08/2018 02:06 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Been there done that. They most certainly do get you high, and it is different for everyone. Even for me, sometimes they would make me drowsy, sometimes they would wire me up. But I ended up getting addicted to them, and had to get off with the aid of bupe. I am not one to blame the industry, tho. I take full responsibility for what I did. I knew what I was doing. I chose to take them and get high while treating chronic pain. I got myself addicted to them. I do not, for one second, blame the doctors or the pharma companies...at all. Addiction is NOT a disease, and people who think it is are blatantly dodging the issue and placing blame elsewhere. Sure, addiction can lead to diseases, and body dependence, and a whole host of complications where real diseases arise. But it all starts with a CHOICE. It matters not if you are actually treating chronic pain the best you know how and get addicted, or if you're taking them recreationally and get addicted. Addiction is not a disease, but a choice, and a bad one at that. It is easy, I get that. I know that. I wish I didn't know how easy it was, I wish I hadn't put myself (and others) through that. |

My retarded doctor will mostly only prescribe this to his patients that have chronic pain now. He actually thinks it's less addictive when's it's just as if not more addictive lol. It's also not as helpful for chronic pain. I was on it for a couple years took me a month to ween off followed by a month a withdrawal. It's a lot worse for others though according to some of the stories I've read...

I also know both, but then there's the third category, that people often overlook, and that's "users" that aren't "potheads." I guess it would depend on your definition, but people using marijuana medicinally, whether by prescription, or just responsibly, don't fall into that category IMO. We won't get into the specifics of whether memory impairment is a "thing" or not (I can tell you in mast cases I have experience with, it's not, but YMMV) but it's also relative. There are people that will abuse or be addicted to anything, and there are those that use responsibly. I understand why people use prescribed narcotics, I just couldn't do it myself given a safer alternative. I like a beer or cider, but I wouldn't drink to relieve pain. Everything is relative, and I don't judge those who don't judge me. I simply ask that if people want to discuss these things, they do it with facts, not opinions. You speak from experience, I respect that :) I do the same, and I expect people to respect THAT in turn.
