"i&#039;ve been taking trazadone for about 4 years. i started because my mind would not settle down enough at night to allow me to go to sleep. trazadone @50mg doesn&#039;t knock me out or make me so sleepy i can&#039;t stay awake but it absolutely settles my mind enough that i can lay down and sleep. 
yes i&#039;m a little groggy when i first open my eyes but within an hour i&#039;m wide awake and looking forward to another nights sleep."
