If you would read The Antidepressant Survivial Guide it would show you what to do.it talks about the very problem you have.Disruption of cortisol output causes by depression.Cortisol is highly toxic to brain cells and can cause them to die.It does cause depression.Your NPY levels are messed up and your sleep wake cycle is controled by NPY .Read the Bipolar Child.Also an overactive acetacholine system causes sleep problems and rem latancy.You can get a DST test to see if cortisol is abnormal.Depression will not stop untill cortisol returns to normal.Read THe Biology of Mental Disorders.
