Summary
This study tests whether adding chronotherapy—a combination of sleep deprivation, sleep schedule changes, and light therapy—to standard depression treatment can relieve symptoms within one week. 76 adults with moderate to severe depression will be randomly assigned to receive either chronotherapy plus usual care or usual care alone. The main goal is to see if the chronotherapy group reports fewer depressive symptoms after one week.
