I am very happy for you. It is important to emphasize that getting off just about any drug should be done slowly and with the help of a informed and helpful medical doctor. I have heard many stories where people just stop suddenly and have devastating and long lasting mental breaks. These pharmaceuticals are very dangerous, it is easy to become hooked. I took the SSRI Prozac and ended up in jail for the weekend when my dose was increased suddenly. Things happen and can spin out of control when the dosage is increased, decreased or stopped.

Glad to hear it!

By the way, if you ever feel down again, you could try CBD oil, sold in most health food stores, since studies show it relieves depression and anxiety.

"A 2015 study concluded that CBD oil is a promising treatment for numerous forms of anxiety, including social anxiety disorder, panic disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder.

If that was true, why did you get on them in the first place?

So glad to hear it. How did you get off them? Have you had any other therapy...CBT for instance.

I was taking Tramadol for over 12years from 50mg to 200mg i became addicted that i don't function without it, But after extensive research i slowed down and stopped, the withdrawal symptoms almost killed me,
