Trazodone will definitely help you sleep, but you may have some difficulty getting up the next morning. A very powerful sedative. If you have to be at work early, mark Trazodone off your list.

My anxiety keeps my mind looping out of control when trying to fall asleep. I spent decades being in between sleep and wakefulness most of the night, often only reaching unconsciousness for a few hours. Trazadone has been a Godsend for me. I was prescribed 50mg, and it works amazingly. When I forget to take it, I toss and turn in the half-conscious mind looping until I realize that I’ve forgotten (or don’t sleep that night…). I don’t like being beholden to medications, so I’ve backed off my dose to 25, and even 12.5 and have still found the sleep benefit to be present far beyond not taking it. I did try to quit cold-turkey once to compare (did I mention I don’t like meds…) and had some side effects of stopping, but I have decided that if I want to sleep and feel human, this is the solution for me. Your mileage may vary, and we all react differently, but I’m getting close to 15 years and can’t live without this medication.

I really appreciate your experience and perspective. I just got out on this. A year and half not sleeping and just thinking all night. Trained myself to just lay still for seven or eight hours and I suppose it’s just trying to meditate and keep eyes closed and rest my body but fully conscious. It’s torturous but the best I can do. I’m on 50 mg and is been two nights and mostly I’ve only noticed maybe that my thoughts have .. stilled somewhat. I’m hoping it’ll kick in after I few more nights. I don’t like or want to be medicated but I’m thankful for your shared experience

Our veterinarian has prescribed this for one of our dogs who struggles with exceedingly high anxiety. He takes it every night, and his overall daily anxiety has lowered noticeably. We tried everything else before agreeing to trying him on this. We are not lazy. He has a full, active life, competes in flyball, lure coursing, and many other varied dog sports. He only competes or plays in the ones he enjoys. He loves most of them. For rainy or freezing days, we purchased a dog treadmill, and use that so he can get at least some physical activity in. When doing all of this before trazodone, he could be physically exhausted, but still whine and pace. His mind would not shut down. It was very sad to watch. So, for him, this medicine being prescribed ‘off label’ has been a godsend.

@@Laurita-ev8me Good question. For some breeds, I think an abundance of physical activity could be too much, but his lineage is hunting dogs. Dogs who are not only “pet” dogs (nothing wrong with pet dogs) can be all types of working dogs. Working dogs, hunting dogs, etc., thrive on physical activity. If they cannot due precisely what they were bred for, they can do sports that are similar in nature. It is actually not fair to own a very active working or hunting breed, and relegate it to a dog who gets a couple of walks a day. Our guy doesn’t do sports every day, or even every week, but if he’s not walked, ( not neighborhood walks) and allowed to run on a long leash at least 4 days out of 7, he will become more miserable, and need more medicine. I can explain more, if you’re interested.

@@Laurita-ev8me He’s actually my daughter’s dog who moved back home after graduating from UC Davis with. B.A., and just last spring received her M.S. in Canine Behavior from Bergin College. She is at this time trying to decide is she should apply for vet school at Davis, or use her M.S. in more of a behavioral setting. She has many friends who are in the animal world with great credentials, as well as veterinarian friends. She has come to the conclusion that he needs meds. She has worked with him consistently from when he was a baby very hard, to train him. Endless hours have been spent working with him, and he is so smart, and responds so well to her training, it’s beautiful to see. Temperament is hereditary behavior in dogs just as in humans. He is AKC registered, breeders hid the fact that his mother and probably her mother had bad temperaments. AKC bred dogs are not supposed to breed unless to standard, and temperament and behavioral issues are genetic, and not allowed by AKC. It’s very sad for him, and we could have gone after them legally, but, “hanging Papers”, lying about pedigree, happens so much in these AKC dogs, my daughter didn’t feel strong enough to deal with the backlash. She thought she had investigated, but you live and learn. I’m sorry my response was so long. He probably would have been put down in most other homes, but he is well managed and has a good life with us. He is a very reactive dog with people, children, some other dogs, everything his breed shouldn’t be, and we’ve owned another dog of his breed before. It stems from fear and anxiety. We love him, and will always protect others. He has never bitten anyone, but I believe that is solely due to my daughter’s diligent management of him, and part of that is trazodone. I’m glad she doesn’t show him. He would have hated it. Sorry again for the novel.

The only two side effects that I've had was extreme drowsiness upon waking up and extremely vivid dreams. I'm also taking Klonopin for my anxiety and it still works I haven't built up a tolerance I'm still on the same dose for 12 years. It took two weeks of taking it before it started working. It helps me concentrate and helps me remember things really well. I'm one of the few people who needed to take it for two weeks before it started working.

25 mg is usually a very low dosage for depression. You should take at least 100/150 mg to see its antidepressant effects. But anyway, you better consulting a doctor and never rise or lower the dose by yourself!!

Dear dr/ nurse, I find it really helps with depression and insomnia at 50mg dose. I do have some ankle swelling, though after 1 week of use. Can I take extra B6 for that? Will appreciate your feedback!❤

This combination can be dangerous as it can cause too much sedation and increase risk for anticholinergic effects. If you are having issues with it talk to your provider about. In small doses it may work just fine though.
