In reply to Melatonin-Does it worsen Depression?, posted by Tom Twilight on December 10, 2006, at 10:03:43
Tom,
In my case, melatonin did cause a worsening of my depressive symptoms. When I take it at night, I usually oversleep and feel depressed and sometimes panicky the next day -- sort of similar to a hangover effect. Not all depressives have this response to melatonin, though.
