>60mg of Codiene splashed with a barbiturate would make me pretty happy too, unfortunately, the happiness that opium brings doesn't last very long & you rapidly build tolerance to it. Tramadol is mostly a SNRI with some weak opiod ability, & the triptans are specialized serotonin agonists, which is roughly what SSRI's do, so I would try another SSRI if Lexapro isn't doing it for you or maybe the SNRI Effexor. :)
