I take a 25mg Paxil CR every night before bed, well I woke up after taking my medication the next day. Being an opiate addict I was searching the internet for medications with opiates or opiods in them. I stumbled across a non-opiate Tramadol.

I followed the advice and took 100mg, well 45 minutes later, I was feeling nothing, so I continued on to take more; I took about 350mg. About 30 minutes later, I was feeling pretty good. Not really a real messed up feeling, but I could tell I was in a better mood, and I felt like I had eaten a 4mg dilaudid. So ya know I was feeling pretty good, so I said if 450mgs made me feel pretty good, I could eat more. So I ate about 300mg. more. Well after that I was feeling really good.

I was definitely messed up. That was about 4 o'clock pm. I had to go to a school concert with one of my friends later that night, so at 6pm one hour before the concert I ate about 400mg more Tramadol. Well all through the concert I kept nodding off, but I felt great. Well the concert ended in about an hour and a half, and I was still feeling really good. So me and my friend went outside. I smoked a cig. And the next thing I know I wake up in an ambulance. The paramedics said I had a seizure. They said I had just fallen unto the ground and started shaking and my eyes rolled back into my head, and I was trying to eat my tongue. The only thing that stopped me, was my friend knew a little about seizures, and knew to put something in my mouth. Needless to say I will never take tramadol while on SSRI's ever again.

[Erowid Note: It can be *very* dangerous to put something in someone's mouth who is seizing and can be more dangerous than letting their teeth grind together.]
