WOW! I really want to thank you for sharing that with me. I know it probably took more than a minute to write.
In general I have the first type of depression and I have it almost always. Then If I add an antidepressant I get brief hypomanias 'or' more likely the second kind of depression you noted except that I've never in my life gone without sleep or have had any tinge of psychoses. My natural sleep cycle has me going to bed at 3am and waking at noon. Obviously that doesn't work well so I wake every day feeling like death until coffee number four. I definately have an increasing sense of urgency as the antidepressant goes up.
Thanks,
Scott
