I have been having these days where I wake up depressed and sometimes anxious. And then by afternoon and evening I feel fine. I have also been sleeping more. Anyone ever have this or is it just me? It's like I wake up to a trainwreck of guilt. And then by late morning sometimes not until evening I feel perfectly fine. It's the weirdest thing. Side note: Before I started St. John's Wort I felt depressed all the time. I take my St. John's wort in the morning on an empty stomach. And then at 5PM after dinner. Maybe I need to take it at 9 instead of 5? I don't know. I'm just having weird mornings.

I too often experience that, but only with mania (more or less) in the afternoon or evening. If there's a lot of instability I might fear sleep (but also at times because trying and failing is worse than not trying at all).
But I don't generally feel guilty (not exactly). Mostly just a short, severe depression. I do feel like giving up on life.

I don't use any stimulant-like and potent herbs or supplements as prophylaxis. It causes a lot of instability, like a pebble thrown into a pond. I use it (using 5-HTP) as shock therapy.

I feel much worse in the morning when I am depressed. It's like my brain/body/spirit can't bear to move away from the solice of sleep. It's a resistance to function I figure.

I tend to get more depressed as the day progresses, unless I don't sleep well, then it seems to be an all day affair.

I feel like garbage every single morning from the high dose of seroquel I need to sleep. I hate it but no matter what other med I try it doesn't work. So pretty much I'm a wining exhausted mess till I can get enough caffeine to snap out of it. Oh the price some of us have to pay for a few hours of shut eye.

I generally wake up feeling depressed then it dissaptes as the day goes on. But that isn;t every day.
