I agree about your experience with antidepressants...I've had bad probs with them also. The doses they give trazodone for sleep are much smaller than they give for depression. For instance, I take 100 mg for sleep. For an antidepressant effect, I believe that the dose is closer to 400 mg/day. Secondly, trazodone is in a completely diffent class of drug than any of thew other AD's, not related at all, as I understand. Just passing along what has worked for me. Good luck!
