"once you find the right dosage for you, trazodone will put you to sleep. i&#039;m no stranger to sedatives - i&#039;ve taken klonopin, valium, xanax, diphenhydramine, etc. none of those medications made me as clumsy as trazodone. i was falling over objects in the house and running into walls. i also felt my mental capabilities decrease - trying to complete a full sentence was a daunting task. additionally, i experienced muscles aches, just like the side effects say. they were so bad that i could not even get out of bed and had to miss work.

it&#039;s unfortunate that doctors don&#039;t like to prescribe benzodiazepines. they helped me a lot than trazodone."
