10 Symptoms of Insomnia
Symptom #10: Depressed Mood
There is a well-known link between depression and insomnia. Patients suffering from depression have a chemical imbalance disrupting their neurotransmitters.
Patients struggling with depression have low levels of dopamine and for some patients this translates in insomnia and others might complain of increased sleeping time. It is also important to state that some drugs used in the treatment of depression can cause insomnia as a side effect. If you find yourself losing interest in activities that usually amuse you, you should seek medical attention for proper diagnosis.
