Unfortunately the tramadol tablets that you are taking are themselves a form of opioid tablets, and maybe as you have used them for such long, stopping them abruptly is causing you discomfort. Tapering them down is one option for you, or you can consult a psychiatrist for help. Other than that, sudden arkamin stoppage can also cause rebound hypertension, and so its tapering is also required.

Taking off label Tramadol for depression is not a good idea. Low dose of opioid have calming down effects but not treatment value for depression. Rather you are becoming dependent on Tramadol that's why other drugs don't seem to give right effect. It would be ideal to meet a psychiatrist and follow standard treatment protocol. Tc.

Tramadol belongs to an opioid group of medications, which are highly addictive and on longer run produces severe medical and psychological issues. To get detoxified you need to consult a psychiatrist who does opioid deaddiction and get yourself out and take safer medications for the withdrawal depression, which may be tapred and stopped after some time.

For management of fibromyalgia a group of drugs called Tricyclic Antidepressants work best. Since Tramadol is not effective in your case, a drug switch is required. Also non pharmacological treatment like exercise, acupuncture, cognitive behaviour therapy can help in addition with medicines. Consult with pain specialist in your city.
