I think pdoc attributed some of my increased PTSD symptoms to the decrease in dosage.

Thanks so much. So good to hear a success story! Yeah I've already had to increase my trazadone by 150mgs. I can't believe I went off so fast, big mistake. I went down to 10 mgs for 2 nights and bc I was still sleeping down to 5 mgs. By like day 4 of that, I had a major return in symptoms. Felt very paranoid and scared. It was awful.
So how did you do it. Like how many mgs did you do it each time? How long was each decrease spaced out?
