I think the zinc was leading to the excessive sleep. Zinc can stimulate the formation of melatonin in the pineal gland. I think you amped yours up too high.
I'd up your vitamin D intake. I know you'd be getting a good bit in your salmon, but deficiencies are associated with a number of mental health issues, and we wouldn't want to leave that to chance. I'd go to 2000 IU/day.
