Struggling with Sleep Medication and Hydration

My psychiatrist gave me trazodone and it has worked great for me. I try to take it like 20 mins to an hour before I want to fall asleep. Now if I try to fall asleep, I can actually fall asleep and stay asleep (used to take hours to sleep and woke up several times a night). I haven’t noticed any side effects, except for being extra tired if I don’t get at least 8-9 hours when I take it.
