Stopping Trazodone. Need guidance

Posted by purplegrrrl @purplegrrrl, Apr 22 10:09pm

I started 50mg Traz in October, bumped down to 25mg in January-ish. I just stopped taking it two days ago (as discussed to do so with my Dr.). for context, I have a fear of withdrawal & health-related OCD. I’ve seen mixed reviews about withdrawing from Trazodone & now I’m worried that i should have tapered (although I was already taking half of the lowest pill). Just looking for guidance for if/when symptoms arise, especially since I will be traveling in about a month or so. Thank you for any advice!

@merrychristmas definitely tapering off slowly, everyone reactions differently depending on the user and how much you are taking and with what you are taking along the day. Things have to add up. Ask for doctors help and pharmacy. It took me months to wean off

@randallshields56 Why are you tapering off Trazodone? I take 150mg. before bed and sleep through the night, about 7 hours
