If that is so then you should report this to your brother and your parents. Trazodone is an antidepressant and should be the remedy in most of these symptoms of depression. However if after 3 weeks of treatment there is no improvement then change in medication / approach should be considered.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
