Treating Comorbid Insomnia and Depression: A Digital Approach

This research explores the effectiveness of internet-delivered cognitive behavior therapy (ICBT) for either insomnia or depression in patients with both diagnoses. The authors conducted a randomized controlled trial comparing ICBT for insomnia with ICBT for depression, finding that ICBT for insomnia was more effective in reducing insomnia severity and led to less need for further treatment and sleep medication. This study highlights the importance of addressing comorbid insomnia in patients with depression, suggesting that ICBT for insomnia can be a valuable treatment option for improving both sleep and mood.
