>FWIW, I believe Tramadol is effective for Social Phobia because it is primarily a serotonin and norepinephrine re-uptake inhibitor. It's activity at the opioid receptor is several thousand times less than something like morphine. I don't even think Tramadol is considered a "controlled" drug by the DEA

SNRIs like Effexor were not effective for me yet tramadol was. The effects of SNRIs usually take weeks or months to appear, but tramadol usually works within hours so it seems there's a different mechanism at work there. It does have a distinct opiate feel for me.
