Or can it be either?

It can be either. We don’t always know what comes first-the chicken or the egg, so to speak-what we know is that there is a relationship. Serotonin is produced during sleep, so a disruption in sleep would affect serotonin levels and this could result in depression, particularly if the disruption was long term. Sleep disturbances are a hallmark of depression and could lead to a sleep disorder resulting from chronic insomnia. That’s why good sleep hygiene practices are so important in managing depression and why shift-work can exacerbate mental health issues in many people, especially those who are predisposed.

I am only looking for Paid clinical trials.
Please, we have no income, and 5 kids.

I know the Penn State Hershey Med Center occasionally has paid clinical trials for those things. Maybe you can look on their website or call. It shouldn’t be too bad of a drive depending on where live in Lancaster.

Or something else…

It could be any of these. The person with the sleep-disorder might be referred to another if the clinician thinks the problem is outside his/her own area of study.
