"I was prescribed trazodone at 20 years old for depression. I took it for 21 years. I was also an alcoholic for 21 years, my blood pressure was so high the doctor had to change my medication. I was petrified as I'd relied on trazodone for so long. Within 3 weeks of taking a new antidepressant, mirtazapine, I'd become the teetotaler. That was over 3 years ago. Can't stand the smell of alcohol. I was a chronic alcoholic all those years, 4 residential rehabilitations. Even embarrassed as I am to admit it, but 4 pregnancies didn't stop my dependency. I say it had the opposite effect on me. Why a GP didn't pick up on it, I really don't know."

Trazodone "This medication doesn't help depression. It also kept me up at night. I couldn't sleep all night. I went to the doctor to get a new antidepressant."

"My dosage increased. The only difference I'm experiencing is it's making me drowsy and lightheaded, like I'm drunk, but not made much progress alleviating my condition."
