I took Trazadone for several years and I loved it! I found that all I needed was 50mg at bedtime as a maintenance dose. When I first started Trazadone, I was so zoned-out and hung over that I literally walked into walls! The only reason I'm not taking Trazadone now is the weight gain side effect (I put on 40 pounds). I'm on Wellbutrin now and I'm still waiting for it to "kick-in" and releive my depression symptoms. Meanwhile, I've developed insomnia. It seems the trick to finding the right AD is finding the side effects that annoy you the least.
> Trazadone is great; a high dose will leave your with some memory loss and hung over in the morning. BUT...... it doesn't cause the tremendous appetite increase that Elavil caused me. Also, trazadone doesn't leave me with the dry mouth problem like Elavil.
