"i have been taking trazodone for almost 6 years. it is a lifesaver for me. after trying most of the benzos, ambien, restoril, seroquel, melatonin and anything else the docs could throw at me i was offered this. i had went years sleeping 1-2 hours a night with a quick cat nap for a couple of minutes here and there. started of at 25mg and i&#039;m now at 75mg. some random grogginess first thing in the morning. full 8 hours of sleep but aware enough to hear one of the kids if they need me. i believe this med is just like any other. while it may work for some it may be horrible for others. just as i have failed some and they have worked terrifically for others. it&#039;s trial and error and there is no one size fits all when it comes to any medication."
