Hi!
I took trazadone for a few weeks whilst I was in hospital, it was prescribed to me to help sleep, with the added bonus that it is an antidepressant!
The first couple of nights I took it, I did feel snoozy and groggy the next day but this wore off in literally a couple of days and I was back to not getting all that much sleep. Maybe start it on a weekend or when you dont have anything vital the next day, but as your body gets used to the drug you will get less of the 'hangover effect'.
I had no other side effects I dont think, but wasn't on it that long since my sleep went back to normal and it was a bit unescessary since i was already on antidepressants. I wouldn't have any worries about going on it again though!
You are not pathetic at allllll, i have freaked out about EVERY new med I have had to take and have needed a lot of convincing. In the end, you need to try it to see for sure what effect it will have for you since it varies a fair amount between people, but I have always found it helpful to hear people's real experiences so I hope this helps you!
Good luck :)
