> X-rayHey...traz works fast (ie the amount of time for you to feel something like aspirin start working)...from 15-30min. It will come on slow with a lil buzz in your head, sometimes a stuffy nose, eyes will feel heavy, you'll feel groggy. These will intensify and put you out (youre looking at max an hour here). You may get a lil anxiety or aggitated stimulation type of a feeling which will pass but if it lingers for any length of time, like taking to much time to work both that night and the weeks to come, then you want to up the dose a lil. Traz will be stimulating at a less than effective dose (your effective dose not the literature) but once you cross that dose its like a tranquilizer...youre out dude. I like it, took it for over a year on effexor now back on it with nardil. You may get a lil cognitive dulling or feeling of groggyness or "slowness" the next day for the first week...but will pass. Down the road (months) you may need to up the dose but anything under 100 is good for sleep
