I keep waking up fully awake several times a night. This often goes hand in hand with being extra suicidal. I have to wonder if I would feel better if I could stay asleep. I have to wonder if I'm actually just tired but don't really feel like I am. Lack of sleep definitely could throw a person into a state of depression that doesn't announce itself clearly. Every day I forget about this and every night I remember.

I had/have the same thing during hard periods. Luckily I'm a bit better now, and I recently started trying something. Get some daylight and try get at least some minimal exercise. Go to bed before midnight. And then I tell myself 'I sleep deep and regenerating' again and again. So far it seems to help falling asleep and feeling refreshed in the morning. It's only me though, and I don't know if it will help when things are really bad. Then it would require some more problem treatment, or even medication I suppose.
