Has anyone that has taken Trazodone for sleep feel shaky in the morning? I am only taking 25mg but I don't know if I am really that anxious and shaky or if it could be the Trazodone. Any thoughts?

I have taken 400 mgs. at night with no morning shakiness, but we all react differently to meds.

Tremor is among the multitude of possible effects but not a common one. The most common one (and I think we discussed this before, for persons of your opposite sex is priapisms.)
You may be awakened from a stage of REM sleep and have a hypnopomic/hypnaegogic hallucination. I've woken up shaken from a tossing nap before. It usually subsides. Trazodone just plain made me groggy afterwards, but as noted of course everyone's body differs. 25mg is a small dose, however.

It's funny you mentioned your side affect in the morning. I started on 25mg for sleep and had the same effect but when it was increased to 100mg, it was better.
