Always, the depression is preceded by several days of waking early, followed by a minimum of 2 weeks of total sleeplessness. Then I sink into depression, anxiety, suicidal ideations. The end of the insomnia is signalled by a sleep with vivid and frightful dreaming, thereafter, my sleep slowly returns to normal. I should note that my insomnia is interrupted by a minimum of 2 hrs unconsciousness every 3 days, but I would not call it sleep. I am encouraged that researchers have finally made the connection between insomnia and depression. The decade of the brain was the 90s. It is now 2008, with thousands of years of subjective data in support of such a connection. The earth is slow, but the cow is patient. I have experienced major depression multiple times in my life.
