I keep checking my husband in the middle of the night :-) but he's not depressed at all, never has been so that's good to know that he probably just has snoring.
I think depression is linked with a lot of chronic medical problems so it does not surprise me that it's linked with breathing problems at night. Apparently one third of people with asthma have depression:
