I've read this too. Depressed people ruminate by day and dream by night. I understand ECT also knocks out REM sleep somewhat (or completely). The argument I read was that dream-time rumination needs reducing if depression is to lift. I presume Wellbutrin is for atypical depression where REM is not exaggerated or may even be too little . ramble . .
