How long do tramadol withdrawal symptoms last?

Meghann

I stopped using tramadol cold turkey (after heavy use for about a month) about 3 and a half weeks ago and I have no more actual withdrawals but I still feel severly depressed. I was not nearly this depressed before I started using tramadol. The week after I stopped I had thoughts of suicide, the depression was so bad. So how much longer is this depression supposed to last? Anyone have any insight on this?

Tramadol is an opiate painkiller that is a derivative of heroin. It is a very difficult addiction to break, which is why so many people stay hooked. I'm not saying you are addicted, but it sounds like physically you were dependent upon the drug.The acute withdrawal usually lasts no more than a week, but mentally can last much longer. There is what is called PAW (post acute withdrawal) which for long-term users can last up to a year. Since you were only using a month, I would say you should start feeling better very soon.Basically you are flooding your system with a drug that makes you feel good. Your body gets used to it and needs it to feel normal. When you remove that, things get thrown out of whack.Congrats on quitting and good luck to you. It will get better, I promise.

Tramadol isn't a heroin derivative. Heroin is made by acetylizing morphine from opium; Tramadol doesn't even come from the opium poppy!Those thinking of going cold-turkey from any opiate addiction should seek a physician. A doctor can help you taper your dose without any discomfort.

Tramadol has nothing to do with opiates, however is can be addictive. it is not a controlled substance as of yer, however the dea is considering changing that.

The leaflet in my box of Tramadol says to tell your doctor if you are preggo or become preggo while on Tramadol. I would assume this is so they can monitor bub and maybe even supervise or advise you of the correct way to stop the Tramadol.The only withdrawal symptoms I got from stopping Tramadol were severe insomnia for around 3-5 nights...it was very annoying...The Tramadol had also constipated me and this changed when I stopped taking it. My back pain quickly returned in about 24 hours after stopping the Tramadol too. I stopped it to trial another painkiller but went back on the Tramadol as it works well for my chronic back pain. The Insomnia was by far the worst symptom I hadSo.....speak with the Doctor who prescribed you the Tramadol so they can advise you properly.
