                        HI..I am being treated for depression, I'm taking Paxil and it has helped very much.  I take it at night for it does make me sleepy and I sleep much better.  When I"m off of it, I get into a "black" hole that I feel like I can't crawl out of.  I go into major mood swings and lash out at people when not taking my med.  I hope that you get better soon.  As for the sleep apnea, my 9 yr old son  has it, and its due to a blockage in his airway.  He will be going for a sleep study in Feb. using the CPAP.  Right now he's just on breathing treatments and inhaler.  He does well with it.  Feel free to write if you like.
