I think that food is a drug and like other drugs it just tranquilizes us so

we sleep more. With your theory and my theory, we now have 4 cents worth. LOL

I don't think this train of thought is way out there it all. It

makes sense, reminds me of the movie Lorenzo's Oil. I am like a lot

of this group in that I had/have problems with sleep and depression.

I was on many different chemicals (physicain prescribed)in the last

four years. For the last two months I have been on NONE. I decided

to find out what was really me and I feel better, more grounded. I

am less prone to depression and I am sleeping well 70% of the time

which is a huge improvement. I think the doctors are way too quick

to prescribe th new antidepressants as they view them as safe and a

first line treatment. I am not saying that some of us don't respond

well to RX treatment, because I know that isn't true. I am just

saying that in my case none is more. I feel like I have my life back

and in my control. I was talking to a friend that has depression and

is in a bad marriage. One of the smartest things I ever said was

antidepressant therapy cannot make the intolerable tolerable. For me

that was an important realization. SO now I am back to activly

designing the rest of my life. Not to say depression couldn't hit

again, but I do feel better informed and prepared to deal with it.
