Bluebird, I understand what you mean about wanting to sleep forever. When I'm very depressed, going to bed is a relief from the stress of analyzing my mood disorder so much. Then when it's time to get out of bed, I just dread it.

Throughout my severe depression of a couple of weeks ago, I forced myself to stay in bed no more than 8 hours a night, and no naps during the day. A psychiatrist once told me that sleeping too much can worsen your depression. So now I'm scared to sleep too much or to take naps. I'm sure that'll change as my depression continues to improve.
