I've been dxed for depression for some time, but my docs didn't quite know what to make of it, because I was atypical, sleeping up to 12 hrs a day, but at the same time the meds that usually work in atypical depression like parnate made me even worse to the point of being psychotically depressed.
I started to take 1.5 mgs of melatonin a week ago, and have found my mood to improve substantially, and my need for sleep to have decreased by 4 hours. It's too early to draw conclusions, but has anyone heard of sleep disorders being mistaken for depression?
