Does anyone know how these two are related? I have read that depressed people have an earlier onset of REM and that it lasts longer than non-depressed people and that many antidepressants reduced or completely wiped out REM sleep ( MAOI's compltely stopped it).

So the question is whether taking something that suppressed REM would be helpful?
Thanks,
JB
