*I* Am Exhausted As Well 

When I first started taking Trazadone for sleep, I took 75 mgs qhs (every night time). I'd sleep 8 hours and wake up refreshed. All the purple exhaustion bags under my eyes cleared up and I started looking like a real human being again instead of Riplette Van Winkle.

Then I got Restless Leg Syndrome, which I think I might have to explain still about what it is and the hell it puts you through. And I started getting 2 hours MAX sleep a night. So I got meds for RLS, and while several of the side effects of that are sleepiness, drowziness, etc... my side effect was terrible, TERRIBLE insomnia. I started getting 3 or 4 hours of sleep a night, which was better than 2, but not a lot.

So now I take 200 mgs of Trazadone a night, and this s enough to set a normal person DOWN for 12 or 18 hours... and now I get about 6 hours of sleep on a GOOD night... and I have a TERRIBLE Trazadone hangover for another 4 to 6 hours after I awake. Oy vey.
