I always wondered how could be people get addicted to painkillers, couldn’t see how it could happen,etc.Then I had an injury to my back and was prescribed Tramadol, then the epiphany occurred….holy fucking shit I was tripping balls for an hour after the first dose, then spent the next few hours counting down to the next dose.I was lucky that my back healed up pretty quickly so I wasn’t too reliant on them.I did have Tramadol on repeat prescription for a while till they were reclassified in the UK and removed from the list.Now the strongest you can get is some co-codamol which are ok but give you constipation lol.
