    I was very tired and disoriented. I also experienced a very fast heart beat. It scared me and I had a fever. Stopped taking after 3 days on it.

    I had been on numerous SSRI medications and was not too happy with the side effects, mostly sexual side effects. I initially tried Instant release Trazodone, and found it helped, but It always found myself in a fog in the mornings.

    I've been on this for a week and my ankles are swollen, I'm retaining water and constantly have the chills. I also have been light headed, my equilibrium is off and my mouth and hands tingle.
