Has anyone here had a trazodone withdrawal?

If so, how long after your last dose did the w/d start? How long did the w/d last? What were your symptoms? Its been 16 days since my last dose, and oddly enough, I only really started getting w/d symptoms a few days ago. They're mild in my case since I wasn't on the drug very long (a few months, with a few short breaks in between), I can even sleep at night if I take rhodiola and/or melotonin and insomnia is what people usually struggle most with when they quit trazodone. I'm just wondering how long I should expect to have the symptoms for now.
 
Withdrawal Sounds very unlikely for a few reasons

1) it's trazadone
2) only a few months, with breaks nonetheless
3) took 2 weeks for them to start

I highly, highly doubt it. Probably psychological or something else. If you had been on it for a year with no breaks, and they started the first or second day after quitting, I'd say yes, real withdrawal. But in this situation, highly, highly unlikely.
 
I had been using benzos off and other classes of drugs before I started trazodone, so maybe its w/d symptoms from another class of drug that I'm feeling. Shit if thats the case, its probably benzo w/d symptoms. I was hoping it was the trazodone cuz god knows how long it'll last if its due to benzo use.
