I am over the flu.

But I am very, very (did I say very) depressed, not for any particular reason. Sleep is the best option.

Glad you're over the flu. Hope you feel better soon.

Sleep-- specifically REM sleep-- causes depression.

There's a study showing that selective REM deprivation causes a decrease in depression. I don't know of any research showing that excessive REM sleep will cause an increase in depression, but I suspect as much.

Don't sleep, come give me pants! :) :) :)

aw :)

I ended up going to the small gathering that you didn't go to -- sigh. It would have been nice to have a baby convergence. I rather suspect that S. is itty-bitty compared to the enormous B.

I do know that sleeping too much makes things worse. It's just easier than anything else on my list right now....

I'm glad that you got out. That should be good for you.
