Insomnia
"I was on Trazodone for nearly a year, taking as much as 300mg nightly. There&#039;s a positive and a negative. It does help with sleeplessness because of its sedating effect. It doesn&#039;t guarantee you will fall asleep. There were several nights I can remember when it felt like the trazodone wasn&#039;t working and I&#039;d be up all night. The positive was it helped on most nights. But just like other prescription drugs, it is habit forming and does cause dependence even though doctors may say otherwise. I tried quitting cold turkey after a few months and my nights were hellish. Zero sleep, racing thoughts, excess energy in the middle of the night, it was absolutely weird. Id only recommend trazodone, if you absolutely must. Try for the natural route."
