> Hi Mitch,
> yes they tend to be seasonal, but then so does my stress level, following the school year. Since my depression and stress intensity are related (two-way relationship, both chicken and egg), it's hard for me to be sure about seasonality. I'll think about your suggestion some more. Thanks.

Sid,There is one upside to all of this.. If you can't control what time of year it is you might be able to control you sleep.. Fix your sleep-fix your mood? I can't do it without chemical help-but I am optimistic that I *might* have some way to control it.
