You got a study or credentials to go with your advice or are you just spouting uninformed bullshit on the internet?
Since I beat you to it, it is uninformed bullshit. Trazadone is an antidepressant, not a tranquilizer. It’s being studied to maybe be used with other medications as a mild treatment for schizophrenia, priapism is a rare side effect, and it has long been used for mild insomnia.
It’s not “extreme overkill” or some sort of emergency-room chemical straightjacket.
This is a tranquillizer that is used to calm down schizophrenic people in crisis!
It also gives you a priapism while making you fully unconscious.
I was prescribed it for chronic insomnia and stopped breathing in the middle of the first night.
Spent the day in the ER.
Was prescribed Ativan instead. All that did was make me very relaxed but did not do anything for insomnia.
In fact it made it worse in some ways.
You say that like it’s a bad thing that its original use is something else.

“I took it once so now I’m the FDA”. Personal experience is valid—for you. It doesn’t rewrite pharmacology
