Anyone have problems sleeping at night due to their depression? There are some nights that I don't want to go to sleep because of the endless chores and idiots that I have to face the next day. Either that or when I do go to sleep, I don't want to face the day because of that reason. What are all your thoughts on this matter? Mind you that I'm doing this without meds for my depression.

I think I'm often restless because of my anxiety rather than my depression. My depression makes me want to sleep all the time, and my anxiety makes me want to stay up because I start feeling guilty for not doing more. The fight between the two is exhausting.

I fight off my tendencies to stay up very late by creating a sleep routine, but it's been tough. At least now I don't stay up until 6.

I definitely relate to being tired in advance at the thought of having to face the next day.
