> At least you could sleep during your major depression. I couldnt sleep at all. My sleep "locked up" on me totally. Total insomnia without taking drugs to knock me out. Id be super tired and sleepy, but couldnt fall asleep. Talk about a living hell. Also I had severe night sweating, Id have to take benzos or low dose trazodone at bedtime to knock me out into this shitty, shallow sleep. Id jerk awake repeatedly during the night and my bed would be soaked in sweat. My covers would be all over the place and my bed pushed about three feet from the wall.

> Talk about existing in a world of shit.My life with Effexor XR is like that some nights! It was not any easier to have a life when I slept 16 hours a day and felt sleepy the other 8 hours though. Oh well.
