"i take 50mg trazodone before bed. it helps me get a full night&#039;s sleep and eases my depression during the day. i don&#039;t think i&#039;d benefit from taking it first thing in the morning because it&#039;s a very sedating drug. i also find trazodone to be an affective long-term pain killer. 



trazodone doesn&#039;t belong to any of the common classes of anti-depressant so it doesn&#039;t kill my libido like ssris and snris tend to do."
