Abstract in brief

  • Depression is linked to disrupted sleep patterns, including lower sleep efficiency, longer REM sleep, and reduced slow-wave sleep.
  • Depression also affects memory, causing emotional biases, overgeneral autobiographical memories, and difficulty suppressing unwanted memories.
  • The disruptions in sleep and memory associated with depression may influence its development and persistence, but our understanding of their exact interaction remains limited.]
