Welcome to PTSD Forum. Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a life threatening, debilitating disorder that can break down a sufferer’s body through anxiety and stress. Further it poses a significant suicide risk resulting from the brains neurological imbalance and chemical depression. Sufferers often live in denial, thus this community is aimed at helping PTSD sufferers help themselves through others experiences, guidance and education. We are here for the sufferer, spouse and families surrounding PTSD. Spouses and family are too often forgotten in this equation, and often they receive all the worst that PTSD has to offer. If you're involved in any way with PTSD, get registered and help yourself now.

Non-active members will eventually be deleted. If you are not a sufferer, carer or someone within the mental health industry, and active, then there is little reason for you to be a member of this forum. Non-active members with zero posts are deleted periodically during the year.

hey. ive taken trazodone for a couple years now. it works most of the time. if i am really upset, it calms me down but doesn't always make me sleep. most of the time, i take 75 mg. it works best without making me groggy in the morning. a higher dose tends to make it hard for me to get up in the mornings.
the most important thing about getting it to work right is to take it with a small amount of something FATTY (very important) so it will break down. i take mine and eat a tsp. of peanut butter, just a little as it is late.
one of the less side effects, no addiction drugs. you have more control over things than it does, lol. hope it works for you.
