Anxiety
"After nearly 4 months off of Tramadol (and, yes, the withdrawal was horrible) I&#039;ve decided to go back on it. I don&#039;t take it for pain any longer; I take it for the brighter outlook it gives me as well as the anti-anxiety benefits. 

Like some other users, I&#039;ve been on many antidepressants over the years but nothing really seemed to work so I&#039;m off of all of the so-called FDA-approved meds. Tramadol isn&#039;t cheap (&#039;cause I don&#039;t have a prescription and can&#039;t imagine getting one from my doctor for the reason I take it) but it IS cheaper than a visit to my psychiatrist. It makes my life smoother and I&#039;m simply making the decision to go back to it."
