> As an option its a super super quick temporary solution, just because your body and mind is working on other things. There are no permanent solutions for depression other than long term maintenance on anti-depressants. A couple nights worth of sleep deprivations seems to be miracle cure compared to the effects and lack of efficacy of anti-depressants. > It's not a treatment at all, just a distraction, like drinking, so I agree with you there and I think its bad advise to promote such, same way as drinking.. I fail to understand the why it is a distraction vs. a cure? Sleep deprivation cures some forms of depression temporarily without use of drugs. Why is that a distraction?
