Tina,
I took Trazodone as a monotherapy for about 7 years and I thought it was a wonderful drug. I took it only at bedtime. The first few weeks, I had a hangover feeling but it went away completely. I also tried taking Trazodone and Prozac together and the combination was excellent. Good luck.

> Thanks again you guys.
