Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic

I think, you have underline depression with PTSD, in that case, you need both medication and psychotherapy. If you are not getting any benefit from trazodone, you can try paroxetine. That would help to control depression symptoms. You can also try life style modification, that would help to overcome from the psychological imbalance.

Thanks
