Hello,
Lack of sleep is a major symptom of depression. Almost 50-60% people with depression have decreased sleep during depression. Make sure you are taking cyclothin 20 during morning after food and not at night. Also consult for adding of sedatives or sleep inducing antidepressants for few days as it will help reduce distress caused due to lack of sleep.
Next Steps
Consult a psychiatrist for addition of sedatives or sleep inducing anti depressant medication.
Health Tips
