I was prescribed Trazodone as a sleep aid for chronic insomnia, because they were trying to get me off Ambien. It helped me get to sleep easily enough, but after a few days of use, I felt like I had a bladder infection, constantly needing to pee no matter how few drops I was able to squeeze out. I spent a couple more days slamming cranberry juice and hydrating before I realized the Trazodone was the thing that had changed. The doctor said this was a pretty rare symptom, but not unheard of, and took me off it right away.

Certainly no recreational potential. If the prescribed dose has that effect on me, taking more would leave me in absolute bathroom agony.
