Please don't be concerned if you are taking Ultram as prescribed. While it is supposed to be
non-narcotic and not addictive, I became at least psychologically hooked as it has a tranquilizing effect on me. I was using it as a sedative, not a painkiller, and it was not prescribed for me - I was using it illegally.
I'm not proud of that, but I would also be ashamed to scare away anyone who was using a drug responsibly with effective results. Aside from idiots like myself, I believe tramadol is a good drug, with no GI bleed or addictive effects of
a narcotic like Vicodan or Percocet.
I'm not aware of the psychiatric uses for Ultram but I have heard of it referred to on PB. Go down to the very bottom of the board and type "Ultram"
into the space by "Search this year for" to find other threads on tramadol.
Sorry to worry you-
Gracie
