manipulating my REM sleep

Posted by linkadge on December 17, 2006, at 11:19:11

So, I hear that in depressed patients REM sleep occurs too early on in sleep, and that in normal patients it occurs more frequently towards the latter half of sleep.
So, if I took an anticholinergic agent right before bedtime, to reduce REM sleep. Then set my alarm to wake up half way through the night to take a cholinergic agent to induce REM sleep (thus pulling my REM sleep forward), could this improve mood?
