I started taking trazodone recently ?

Question

(its been like 2,3 weeks) and it doesnt help. Actually instead of helping me sleep it makes me feel even more crazy, wound up, i feel like all my sense are heightened and everything around me seems to be magnified. I feel even more anxious than before, is all this normal? anyone felt this way? i was told this stuff works well...

Answer 1

It did help me sleep, but it also made me constipated and incontinent. Different drugs work differently for individuals. Sounds like you need something else - Ambien maybe?

Answer 2

It helped me sleep but then I had terrible nightmares. So when I woke up, I didn't feel rested. I had to switch to a herbal sleep aid and then I was fine. It didn't make me wound up, though. My brother has taken it for years with no problems, so it's different for everybody. You should have adjusted by now, I would think?? : /

Answer 3

thats **** use to knock me out!  

Answer 4

trazadone made my nose stop up badly, other than that... it made me extremely sleepy. but, the nose thing was so annoying i couldn't sleep so i just don't take it.  still have a full bottle in my med cabinet.

  

Answer 5

I am on trazadone, though I rarely take it, but it makes me feel too groggy the next day, something that worked very well for me at a low dose was seroquel, it would get me asleep without making me groggy the next day....
