Hi Noa,
I'm hesitant about the Trazodone because I know it's related to Serzone; and Serzone gave me the worst insomnia I ever had [to say nothing of the crying jags]. I think I may stay with the Xanax. I appreciate your post. I think the doctors get over-zealous with the 'addiction' thing. There were a few nights I didn't take it with no problem since my doc gave me Ambien which was not good for me at all. Besides, I don't have an 'additive' personality. I've weaned off Paxil twice; what could be worse!!
