And how does poor sleep causing depression square with sleep deprivation alleviating it?
- cellularmitosis 9y agoI could imagine that being chronically deprived of quality sleep is different than skipping an entire circadian cycle once per week. Edit: I recently made the mistake (for a few months) of taking my medication before bed, rather than in the morning. This included vitamin D. Guess what happens when the body gets a dose of vitamin D at night? No quality sleep for you! So I certainly sympathize with the quest for quality sleep.
- psyc 9y agoA controlled sleep fast may help temporarily. Chronic deprivation beyond your control is a disaster.
- Nomentatus 9y agoGood question, however a rush of steroids for one day incidentally boosting mood isn't inconsistent - it's just the body treating that day as something of an emergency situation. A swallow doesn't make a summer.
