There's a lot of increased entropy in the brain of sleep deprived people, but long term the effects are negative, and the antidepressant effects are transient.

There's a lot of increased entropy in the brain of sleep deprived people, but long term the effects are negative, and the antidepressant effects are transient. So it can help but really sort of a risk from whst I've seen, unfortunately (spoiler alert, I self medicate this way too).
- sureglymop 4y agoI think we shouldn't forget that when you don't sleep enough, you might have difficulty doing ordinary, everyday task. It might be more difficult to focus, to socialize etc. And this can then again affect ones self esteem which can affect the depression negatively. So i would be rather careful with "abstaining from a regular sleep cycle" in order to help with depression.
