I have become a tramadol addict i need at least 500mg a day or i feel sick, get cold sweats, and extreme depression, going to private clinic tomorrow to start methadone program, starting with the lowest dose, i know that it usually is for people coming off heroin, but if i dont get on the methadone i’ll end up o.d. at home. sorry have asked similar ques. before, anyone have any, comments, advice, experience, with either of the evils?

Wow. That’s 14 Tramadol you just took. Of course it’s bad. You should be in an inpatient detox center and get off EVERYTHING. Methadone isn’t going to help you. It only prolongs the withdrawals you WILL go through eventually. Go into a detox center and they can give you medications (non-narcotics) to get you through the withdrawals. Then it will all be over. No more drugs….period.
BMAC gives you the worse possible of advices. You’ve a medical condition requiring medical treatment, and going to a methadone program is the best thing you can be doing for yourself. Then, if warranted, and at the appropriate time, you will be weaned slowly from the medication to mitigate any suffering and eliminate any danger to your life that a quick withdrawal could impose. And make no mistake about it, people do die from severe opiate withdrawal. For BMAC to give you such advice in the absence of any information regarding your physical condition or afflictions you may suffer was more than irresponsible. Stay the course you are on and don’t let those with an axe to grind put your life in danger while advancing their own narrow-minded agendas.
Good luck.

Interesting…I’m trying to get off of my percocet addiction, and my Dr. put me on Tramadol today! To get me through the withdrawls…He told me it is VERY rare for somebody to become addicted to the Tramadol…how long have you been taking it? I just took 100mg and I’m having heart palpitations, and my chest hurts. I’m also kinda dizzy. E-mail me if you want to talk.
it is far too much shouldn’t even be taking that much!!!!!
