In reply to hydrocodone or tramadol for depression, posted by shellie on June 4, 2000, at 23:41:59
Hydrocodone is the same a Vicodin, no wonder you don't care whether or not your depressed. Vicodin abusers, not saying this is you, get a high. It is also addicting.
> I take a small amount of hydrocodone when I am very depressed (usually premenstrally), or when I feel stomach pain. It always helps with the depression. I have been using it for about two years, and have never increased the dose. My therapist and psydoc think this is very bad. I can't figure out, really why, since I don't seem to crave more and it makes me feel better. (I am also on an MAOI). I don't seem to have addiction tendencies. Does anyone else do this? With or without your doc's blessing?
> Also there was a thread about a year ago about a woman taking an MAOI and tramadol? Does anyone have experience with this? Does anyone's doctor proscribe this? I am tired of depression and I'm tired of trying new meds that are either ineffective or have side effects and the hydrocodone works with no side effects. Whats the problem?
