Depression
"Hello everyone. I, as many of you, have struggled with major depression for a long time. For me, it comes and goes - with a terrible onset towards the end of the winter month&#039;s. I&#039;ve tried 4 different antidepressants with no success. Actually, Wellbutrin did help - but I ended up being allergic to it. Go figure. I was prescribed Tramadol for pain last year during a hip problem I was having and wow did it help my mood. I didn&#039;t feel so broken. This year I am suffering from depression again but haven&#039;t started on Tramadol yet. I am nervous because of it&#039;s addictive qualities, but I cannot keep calling out of work and risk losing my job. It is a terrible feeling. All your posts have been very encouraging so thank you for sharing!"
