Yes you can develop tolerance to the sedative effect of trazodone over time but 2 weeks is a short time. Regardless, there are several other medications out there which can help with sleep and do not cause tolerance, please ask your psychiatrist to prescribe something else. It would also help to investigate the underlying cause of your insomnia, if that is fixed or treated you might not need sleep medication

It is a sedative antidepressant, many a times people can report similar feeling. You need to consult with your psychiatrist and get it addressed. Good luck
