I haven't had depression since I was a teenager, spending countless hours each day lying in bed staring at the walls or the ceiling.

Thats every day of my life. I have anxiety.The sleep thing.. waking up unable to move, I remembering having that a few times long ago. It won't kill you, just scare you senseless for a while. Do you ever have it when throughout the day your body suddenly goes numb and you have trouble moving?
Once away from the situation causing my depression, I got better. I was still a nervous wreck for some time, but that was mostly because my damn parents would come and go throughout the day, and never lock the door, so I had to go and check it every 5 seconds to make sure it was locked. Any intelligent person would be screwed up as well from that though.
