I work in construction for a living and i always jave tension and soarness on my lower back and one time my father in law gave me a tramadol and it took all of my symptoms away also giving me energy, focus, and put me in a happy mood, i started taking one then two then was taking 8 a day but now that i stopped taking them my mood swings are terrible im very fatigued, i decided to stop because i was becoming an addic and was scared to be dependant on them, i need these symptoms of depression fatigue anxiety to go away any suggestions, i am afraid to tell my doctor about it. Its been two weeks that i have stopped but at nights i get horrible anxiety and my legs feet tingle.

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

Tramadol can cause fatigue, it is one of the main side effects.

It has also been reported to cause anxiety and mood swings in some persons as well so it is understandable to be concerned.
It is not a medication that is commonly associated with tolerance and withdrawal symptoms. This means that your current anxiety and depressed mood may not be linked to the withdrawal of the tramadol.

You should consider seeing your doctor for assessment.

I hope this helps
