Hello again. I have been on trazodone 50mg( at night) since April 8 ,2014.I have also been taking 10( for a month) and then 20 mg of paxil since the same date.When i get up in the morning i feel like a zombie for a couple of hours and when i stand up i get dizzy, i can wake up 5-7 times during the night and have these weird dreams,i also wake up feeling tired .The first couple of weeks on trazodone i would wake up and my brain felt like it was in a fog and things just got worse.I did some research and this certainly looks like trazodone side effects and i want to get off of trazodone. I will not be able to see my doc till next week so i had a talk with my pharmacist and he told me to cut the 50 mg in half and i have been doing that for three days .I would prefer to stop cold turkey and suffer for a short time than drag this out.Even with 25 mg i still wake up after 2-3 hours of sleep and feel tired the next day.Any suggestions would be appreciated.Thank you
