I'm only guessing here but it might be atypical depression with panic disorder and gen.anxiety disorder. People with atypical dep. sleep A LOT,when my depression is really bad I sleep a lot also. People with this type of dep. are able to "get up" for special occasions, be cheered up occasionally. Also when a person is "Bogged down" by something that is bothering them-(in your case it would be severe anxiety) that alone can induce depression. One last thing,please don't wait for your doc to refer you to a pdoc, take the initiative and YOU need to ask him/her for a referal. I really want you to get well-and I believe your illness can and will be treated effectively by a pdoc. also I'm definitly not a doc, so my "guess" as to what your illness could be may be totally wrong. I'll continue to pray for you, and your husband and children as well. May God bless you-and remember He never gives us anything that we can't bear ( all though it sure doesn't feel that way sometimes ). :)
Wishing you well,
Tyler
