My friend with sleep apnea had been on a couple of antidepressants. They hadn't helped, and one, nortriptyline, made him feel suicidal. After one night of using the CPAP, his depression of seven or eight years was gone. There are probably millions of people suffering from depression because of untreated sleep apnea.
