Does the sleep help? If so, indulge.
Be easy on yourself. Depressive episodes do pass, even though they seem like they won't.
And I find that it helps to tell myself "ixne on the conclusions about life, future, etc. while in the throes of depression."
Just do what you need to do to get through each day, taking as good care of yourself as you can.
I know, it is dreadful. I sometimes don't understand how I made it through all those episodes. It is very hard. But it can be done.
I'm glad you reached out for encouragement and support--that is a very healthy sign!
