　　The typical sleep disorder of depression is early awakening, that is, waking up more than half an hour earlier than usual in the morning, not being able to fall back to sleep after waking up, and having some unpleasant past events or worrying about the future repeatedly in the mind. In addition, patients may also show that they can not fall asleep more than half an hour after going to bed at night, or wake up easily at night and dream a lot. In addition to sleep disorders, patients with depression often show varying degrees of poor mood, lack of happiness, lack of interest in everything, loss of enthusiasm and interest in life and work, or for no reason whatsoever, feel less energetic, unable to do things, feel that the brain has become slow, and it is difficult to concentrate, and so on.

For example, there are some college students, even if they do not find a job, do not hide at home, they should go around for interviews, so that they can get out of depression and return to a new life.
