While tramadol is an opiod that can make one feel drowsy, it can sometimes boost energy & improve mood by increasing certain hormones that some antidepressants also increase. Also by relieving painful symptoms, one can also feel less fatigued & happier. Unfortunately tramadol can cause mental & physical dependence after taking it for some time.
