How are sleep disorders and depression treated?
The treatment for clinical depression depends on how serious the mood disorder is. For instance, psychotherapy (talk therapy or counseling) combined with medications (antidepressants) is highly effective in treating depression. The antidepressants work to decrease symptoms of sadness or hopelessness while the psychotherapy helps improve coping skills and prevent future depression episodes. Talk therapy also works on coping skills to help you fall asleep more easily.
