Insomnia
"I&#039;ve been having issues getting a good night sleep. I would not have a hard time falling asleep but would wake up several times at night, mainly due to anxiety. I&#039;ve been taking Trazodone for only a few days so it is a bit premature for me to have a real opinion on the drug. So far, it has helped me sleeping and I feel happier too. I take 50mg at night. The significant side effect I&#039;ve noticed though is water retention. My hands are horribly swollen (to a point where it&#039;s painful) and I&#039;ve gained 7 lbs in a week (which is absolutely not usual for me). I&#039;m a bit torn right now between continuing taking Trazodone and stopping it as the water retention side effect is really bad."
