Anybody ever done trazodone?

[Lumberg]

I took two last night to help me sleep and goddamm I feel all hung over and shit. I'm only now starting to feel normal (4 pm)

 

[fl8meplz]

Dude!! Don't take two! Just take one. I am assuming these are 50mg??

If you took two that's why you are so damn hungover. If you take one each night after a little while you will just need a cup of coffe in the am and you will be fine all day.

you will get used to it and eventually the "hang over" effect will subside..I really like trazodone because I can take an ECA stack and/or yohimbine relatively late in the day(so as to amp myself up for my early evening lifting)..and then take a couple of trazodone and sleep well

Actually what I did was take one then go to sleep like 45 mins later.

Then I woke up at like 4 am so I took another one.

In retrospect this was really dumb...but understand at 4 am I was still under the effects of the 1st trazzie.

I HAD SCRIPT FOR TRAZADONE. THEY MAKE YOU FEEL LIKE SHIT CUZ THEY ARE A TRANQUILIZER. NO MATTER HOW MANY I TOOK, THEY MADE ME FEEL WORSE. THEN, THEY DRIED MY MOUTH OUT SO MUCH I HAD TO KEEP DRINKING WATER EVERY FEW MINUTES WHICH IN TURN MADE ME GET UP TO PISS EVERY FEW MINUTES. THEY SUCK.

Ambiens are better.

Ambiens are better.

FOR SLEEP YES........BUT TRAZADONE IS AN ANTI-DEP.

AMBIENS ARE THE SHIT FOR SLEEP.

 

[Lumberg]

ambien didn't really do it for me. Sonata either.

The only thing that's really good for sleep for me that I have tried so far is Ativan but they are addictive to the max.

trazodone is a serotonin based anti-d..if you are having problems regarding sleep based on a serotonin shortage than trazodone should be good..myself I'm anxiety prone and I toss and tussle at night..some of this may be related to elevated cortisol levels post exercise and from my overall stress related job..and yet again some of my sleep distrubances are form worrying about get my sleep..trazodone has elimnated much of this...and part due to the self-fulfilling prophecy effect of knowing I've taken "something" and I don't worry

Trazadone is also a powerful antihistamine. It's effects will likely carry over into the next day for awhile until you get used to it.

AHA. That's funny because all last night I was stuffy. Tonight no trazzies and relatively clear nostrils.

I just woke up in the middle of the night cos of a bad dream and am waiting for a bit b4 I go back to bed.

Actually I think I confused it with amitriptyline. Not sure if Trazadone is antihistaminergic or not. Sorry.

Methamphetamine may help, but its takes a few days to start working

I had the same prob as you. I was havin trouble sleeping so i started takin them til i worked up to 2 pills. Then i said screw it and stopped for a long time. One night i tried to start out at either 1.5 or 2 pils again, and i felt extremely hung over the next day.

I need to adjust my dose of Lexapro upwards me thinks
