opioids for depression

Hey guys!

What do you think about using opiates like hydrocodone, tramadol, subutex.. for treatment-resistant depression. Some people on them say that these are the only drugs that actually work. I don't know.. look at the heroin addicts..

When I've taken hydrocodone for pain, it's given my mood a nice boost. But I've never taken it long-term, since I don't want to go down the road of tolerance, addiction and withdrawal. Bryn has written about Tramadol helping her depression. I don't know what dose she's used or how long she's taken it.
