I experience the same pattern. In the late afternoon and evening, I feel almost normal, I feel myself. Then every morning I wake up either feeling anxious or depressed again and the cycle starts all over. From what I have read, and confirmed with my pdoc, this is a common pattern with depression/anxiety. You feel better at night and then feel terrible again in the AM. They don't have any answers as to why this occurs. Maybe it has something to do with shifts in things such as cortisol, etc. which rise and fall during certain times of the day.
