Sleeping is a dark place when you are depressed. You crave it and sleep way too much during the day, but nights can be torture. I consider it an accomplishment that the last three or four nights I've had about 7 hours of broken sleep with only one drug (lorazepam) at the beginning of the night! (I'm not counting all the other meds I have to take at bedtime - that's another post). It used to take me two or three sleeping-focused meds to get a few hours and then another in the middle of the night. (Of course there were days when I could sleep for hours, just not at night.) As you can see, I have improved.
But what no one tells you is how often you go to sleep hoping you don't wake up. It would solve so much.
Sweet dreams.
