Addictive and other : You did not mention a pain problem for taking the tramadol. If it is giving you energy and making you happy, then there is some reason to be concerned that it may be being misused. Some long term negative effects are liver damage, addiction, dependence, constipation, respiratory suppression, and others.

Tramadol: Long term use of any pain medicine is not without risk. There is however no maximum length of time you can take the medication. My only concern is that you say that it "helps with energy and makes me happy". Tramadol is not a stimulant and is not a "happy pill", it is a pain medication.
