Hello, My inquiry might seem a bit out of the ordinary, but I will still make it anyway. I have been on Tramadol (not prescribed but taken clandestinely) for quite some time now, but I have not taken it for pain but rather for depression, which has significantly eased my depression symptoms, and even though Tramadol is a medication mainly prescribed for pain, but it has acted as an antidepressant, and I have not taken any other medications aside from Tramadol, so my question is, how or where could I find a Doctor near me that could be willing and understanding enough to prescribe me Tramadol specifically as an antidepressant? I have documented diagnosis of depression, and I have been prescribed antidepressants like Zoloft, but it hasn't worked much for me really while when I have taken Tramadol, it has significantly eased my depression, so is it possible to inquiry to a Doctor about Tramadol for depression? Thank you very much.
