I have recently been put on trazadone to help with sleep and as an antidepressant. Is it known to cause weight gain?

Hi,
I take Trazadone for sleep occasionally and it works great.  I haven't taken it for depression, I usually take Wellbutrin for that.  When I take Wellbutrin, I actually lose weight, I think it's because it makes me feel better and I no longer need food to make me feel better.    
I looked up on google if it causes weight gain.  It can cause weight gain, but it can also cause weight loss 5.7% of people experience weight loss.  
Have you had any weight gain with it?  How many days have you been taking it?
Do you feel better on it (no more depression)?
