Hi.
Just my 2 cents for a sec here. I took trazadone... oh, about 3 years ago for about a year. I have been off of it 2 years.. because Of various surgeries.... and my doctor recommended it.
The clincher.... I had no clue this was even an AD. I thought it was just like....say.. unisom, ya know what I mean? So I didn't have any side effects. Could be because I wasn't looking for them, ya know?
Now I started taking an AD serveral months ago... found this and other forums... saw what could happen and they did. Is this a mind thing here or what????? Funny.
But to answer your question..... it worked well for me for sleep.... and I am debating on taking it occasionally for the bad insomnia nights again... not sure.
My doctor's make a huge joke to me..... "next time I prescribe you anything... you are not to research the side effects." Ha ha. Anway, your answer..... good for sleep, no side effects. For me anyway... everybody is different. Good luck. A little piece of advice? Stay off this board until you have taken it for like 2 months. Just kidding... I wish I would have done that. Good luck.
