Hi TM
Everytime I increased the dosage the tiredness lasted about 2 weeks or so .... just in time to up the dosage again. :-) Now I have the lamictal doing the same thing. Sigh.
The trazadone doesn't help the fatigue, in fact it probably makes you feel worse. But going without sleep will drive you crazy.
Maybe your doctor can add one of the those meds that are used for narcolepsy (can't think of any names) until your body gets used to the Parnate.
I am not working right now (looking very hard though) so I had the luxury of lying down when I couldn't stand up any more. I don't know what I would have done if I had been working.
I hope you find some sort of remedy that works for you. Talk to your doctor.
