Actually I'm using it for the antidepressant 5-HT2a+c antagonism effect which I prefer over SRIs.> Additionally -- and since yo8've been on it now for a while so it is irrelevant, Trazodone has a metabolite called mCPP that can make people a bit loopy/psychosis if they're susceptible to it,

Yeah I know about mCPP and while I didn't read about making some people psychotic I can see how it could do that (5-HT2a+b agonism).. basically like LSD.
priapism...

Ouch indeed! .. I'm scared of that since I take Wellbutrin (good for sex, better erection and libido) and from time to time some Cialis (like Viagra for with an effect which may last 36 hours) ... that said with all 3 my sex life is way better! ... many years of SSRIs (Paxil especially) leaved me partially impotent, my orgasm sucks bigtime and my genitals are anesthesied partially... anyway.. I pray that this Priapism thing never happen! :PThanks again for the info!
