After noticing a lack of Trazodone reports, I figured I should due my part and offer some token remarks. Trazodone was initially introduced as an anti-depressant, but its prevailing side effect, namely severe drowsiness, allowed it to gain a foothold as a sedative. While Trazodone has no recreational potential, I have found it ideal for circumventing my recurrent insomnia. I typically administer between 50 and 150 milligrams, as the mood should strike me. Trazodone is, in my opinion, a viable alternative for those who wish to avoid the memory problems and dependency that are often associated with the more potent sedatives on the pharmacological spectrum. I have also noted a marked increase in the length and complexity of my dreams, while under the yoke of Trazodone.
