I take 50 mgs of trazodone at bedtime for sleep and some nights I have restless legs they just feel like I need to jerk them. Has anyone else had anything like this happen to them?

I just started this med for mostly sleep problems, but it also suppose to help me with my bipolar. Anyway, I read about the restless legs situation and I had the same experience but I made the mistake of taking a pill and a half which was 150 mgs, I will not do that again. As soon as I took the pills, in no more than 3 minutes, I felt it working, but when I went to lay down, that's when my legs started getting this weird sensations and it wouldn't stop, so I had to get back up and start walking around, that was messed up because I was in a daze, as soon as I laid back down I don't remember anything else except when I woke up the next morning, these pills are some powerful stuff. This was the first time I took this med, which was last night, so I'm going down to 1 pill tonight and see how that do me.
