Do people suffering from extreme depression ever have rational thoughts at speci!


Question: Do people suffering from extreme depression ever have rational thoughts at specific times!?
Its hard to ask what I want to say here!. If you have ever suffered from depression, have you ever noticed that you get more rational at a specific time of day!? I mean I know that its a 24/7 thing, but do you ever find that (for example) late at night, you think slightly more clearly than earlier in the day!.!.!. or you wake up in a clear mood and then the day gets worse from there!?

I hope that makes sense!.Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Your question makes perfect sense!. I suffer from Rapid Cycling Bi-Polar II Disorder, complicated by SAD!. I have had my share of depression having been hospitalized several times because of it's severity!. When I am in a severely depressed state I find that I seem to have fairly normal thoughts, not so down and unhappy, first thing in the morning and late afternoon when my husband gets home from work!. Evenings and nights when I tend to "think too much" and dwell on things are bad!. So yes, even with Major Depression you can have some normalcy, it is the bad times you need to really be concerned with!. The bad thoughts can really mess with you and it only goes down from there making everything worse, especially if you become suicidal!. Please get some help if you are not now receiving it!. With medication and therapy you can get better, maybe never over your depression, but able to live with it and to me that is better!. Good luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I would wake up in a better mood and it would get progressively worse through out the day , ( before taking meds )!. However, I was never not thinking clearly or rationally!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I tend to be irrational in the evening (think bad stuff and jump to conclusions etc get upset when i shouldnt) and be happier and clearer thinking in the morning!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I was always clearer and a tad less depressed early in the morning!. I think it's not unusual to fluctuate some during the day!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

When I am with family who support me and we end up laughing till it hurts, I find for a few hours after I feel a lot better and think that this feeling of nothing will leave me some dayWww@Answer-Health@Com
