maybe this has been asked a hundred different ways by different people, i just know my own experiences with it and when you are in that place, its hard not to want to sleep your entire life away.

    completely normal for an urge to just sleep to accompany depression .. it's a tough battle to just keep your eyes open when you can't deal with everday life in general.

    i deal with the same feelings as if i just sleep all day to let the day go by to avoid seeing the day but its completely normal to experience that if you get some help for it.

    Yes, and if you think you're depressed, try getting a hobby and taking B Complex or St. John's Wort. If that doesn't help, tell your doc to refer you to a therapist. Most insurances pay or 20 sessions, which should snap you out of it.
