&gt; Sleep is <i>really</i> important.<p>This cannot be overstated enough, I think, beyond just the effects of severe sleep deprivation. It&#x27;s very true in my personal experience with major depression as well.<p>Also good to do: eat well, get exercise, get sunlight. Minds don&#x27;t exist in isolation from the body, it&#x27;s all the same sack of chemicals.
