hello there, chemist here...in response to your question about how sedating is trazadone: very. strong affinity for histaminergic receptors, an old-school tricyclic that is associated with priapism (this means if you are male, you might have to go to the e.r.. to get a shot of a steroid in the family jewels, which translates to trazadone inducing a condition other than flaccid). predominantly used for sedating pre-op patients or for a sleep aid, you can count on trazadone being continually sedating. deep sleep and viagra-reduction are in your future, and you get the TCA side-effects as a bonus. i suggest ambien or sonata, the former if you have trouble falling/staying asleep, the latter if the difficulty lies in simply falling asleep...all the best, chemist
