> I think it seemes clear to me that some people spend to much time on this site, period. Which, in my opinion, adds to depression and obsession with depression! This site is valuable on some level to discuss drug side effects etc. But there is a different degree of poster that just lives on this site! Do you think if they spent a little less time away from obsessing about depression and more about having a life, they would feel better! I do.
Hmmm... it seems to me that you're spending quite a bit of time contributing to this feed, in a manner that is not particularly constructive and is in fact aggressive towards other bloggers. How do you feel that is helpful? If it is that you are genuinely concerned that this site is unhelpful for some people who spend a lot of time on it, why not bring it up in a less antagonistic manner?
Anyway, re: sleep therapy, I've never tried it- but I do know that when I am going through a bad patch depression wise I dream constantly and have very anxious dreams- I wake up feeling tired even when I've slept 8 or 9 hours. I've reard you can significantly improve depression in a clinical setting by monitoring the patient's sleep and waking them up each them they are just going into REM sleep. I thought that was really interesting.
