SLEEP DISORDERS AND
MENTAL HEALTH

2 Clinical Sleep Medicine
BIPOLAR DISORDER
Sleep is even more disturbed in bipolar disorder than in MDD. Reduced
need for sleep is one of the diagnostic criteria for manic episodes; how-
ever, this symptom can be misinterpreted as insomnia (American Psy-
chiatric Association 2013). If an individual has reduced sleep needs but
spends the same amount of time in bed, he or she will spend less time
sleeping and experience more sleep fragmentation (Wehr et al. 1987).
The main difference from insomnia is that in mania, reduced sleep du-

SCHIZOPHRENIA
Although sleep disturbances are not among the core symptoms of
schizophrenia, they are common in this disorder. Schizophrenia is asso-
ciated with a reduced need for sleep, daytime sleepiness, and insomnia,
which can be severe during the acute phase of the illness. Nightmares

ANTIDEPRESSANTS
Due to their serotonergic or noradrenergic and anticholinergic effects,
most antidepressants inhibit REM sleep, which manifests in prolonged
REM sleep latency and overall reduced REM sleep duration. The thera-

peutic effect of these drugs may, to some extent, be related to this out-
come, because selective REM suppression protocols in the laboratory
setting can yield clinical benefit of similar magnitude (Vogel et al. 1975).
Few antidepressants, including mirtazapine, trazodone, and doxepin,
promote both SWS density (slow wave amplitudes) and duration (Krys-
tal 2012).
TST varies across drugs, according to their class and individual prop-
erties. For instance, when considering tricyclic antidepressants (TCAs)
as a class, amitriptyline, nortriptyline, and clomipramine result in sleep
consolidation and increased TST, but most other TCAs, especially desip-
ramine, and monoamine oxidase inhibitors can be activating and used
as mild stimulants, thus potentially contributing to insomnia. More com-
monly prescribed, most selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs)
and serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs) result in in-
somnia at a rate of up to three times that of placebo (Lam et al. 1990).
Among the SSRIs, however, citalopram has a lower rate of treatment-
emergent insomnia, whereas fluvoxamine has a higher rate (about 30%)
and can also result in daytime sedation.
Bupropion holds a unique place due to its different pharmacological
mechanism—dopamine and norepinephrine reuptake inhibition—with
an overall mild but consistent activating effect. Bupropion is often used
off-label by sleep specialists to reduce excessive daytime sleepiness and
can result in difficulty with sleep onset if it is taken later in the day. This
unique mechanism of action is shared with a newer agent, solriamfetol,
which has been approved for the indication of excessive daytime sleep-
iness in narcolepsy and residual sleepiness associated with OSA despite
treatment.
Low-dose doxepin (3–6 mg) is the only antidepressant approved by
the FDA for the treatment of insomnia and promotes sleep via selective
histamine (H1) blockade. Sedative TCAs (amitriptyline, nortriptyline),
trazodone, and mirtazapine also promote sleep via H1 but also via sero-
tonin-2A (5-HT2A) receptor blockade (see Chapter 4).
Due to their serotonergic properties, all TCAs, SSRIs, and SNRIs can
result in a new onset or exacerbation of RLS symptoms or PLMs, as ob-
served on polysomnogram (Hoque and Chesson 2010; see Chapter 17).
This is a higher concern with antidepressants that have antihistamine
properties (H1 antagonists), such as mirtazapine, or with low-dose dox-
epin. Treatment-induced RLS can occur in up to 28% of patients taking
mirtazapine (Rottach et al. 2008). Preexisting or new symptoms of RLS
should ideally be screened in patients prescribed these drugs, especially
if a complaint of insomnia paradoxically worsens despite their use.
10 Clinical Sleep Medicine
Dream recall can be reduced with certain TCAs but not typically with
SSRIs and SNRIs. Cessation of antidepressant treatments, especially if
abrupt, can result in significant REM sleep rebound and exacerbation of
unpleasant vivid dreams or nightmares (Wilson and Argyropoulos
2005). Importantly, as many as 6% of patients treated with antidepres-
sants can experience abnormal dream enactment during REM sleep, also
known as RBD (see Chapter 15) (Teman et al. 2009). This condition can
lead to serious injuries to self and bed partners and in many adult cases
can progress to a neurodegenerative disorder, sometimes after decades
(Bodkin 2018; Högl et al. 2018; Postuma et al. 2013). This side effect is
likely due to the serotonergic properties of antidepressants and is charac-
terized on polysomnography by increased chin and limb electromyo-
graphic activity during REM sleep instead of the normal muscle atonia
that usually defines this stage of sleep.
MOOD STABILIZERS
Data are limited for most newer agents used for mood stabilization. Lith-
ium is associated with increased SWS and, like antidepressants, REM
sleep inhibition.
ANXIOLYTICS
Benzodiazepine drugs produce a sedative effect via activation of the
GABAA receptor (see Chapter 4). Although often used to improve sleep
quality and reduce sleep fragmentation, benzodiazepines reduce SWS
and increase in proportion the amount of stage N2 sleep, a lighter stage
of sleep. They also increase sleep spindle activity. Benzodiazepines can
potentially aggravate any underlying OSA via relaxation of the upper
airway dilator muscles (see Chapter 8).
β-Blockers, which are sometimes used to treat event-related (perfor-
mance) anxiety, are known to inhibit melatonin production via inhibi-
tion of adrenergic β1 receptors. β-Blockers reduce SWS and REM sleep
and can provoke disturbed sleep, nightmares, and insomnia.
ANTIPSYCHOTICS
Most antipsychotic drugs can have sedative effects, which can be used to
consolidate sleep and reduce sleep complaints. The agents found to have
lower rates of daytime sedation (less than 30%) are quetiapine, ziprasi-
done, and aripiprazole, whereas those with higher rates of excessive day-
time sleepiness include clozapine, thioridazine, and chlorpromazine,
followed by risperidone and olanzapine (Krystal et al. 2008).
Introduction 11
Conclusion
Sleep and mental health are in a relationship of mutual causality. As
summarized in this chapter, current evidence supports the following:
The effects of psychotropic drugs on sleep are not limited to the pro-
motion of sleep or wake. Psychotropic drugs can result in altered dream
experiences, nightmares, potentially injurious parasomnias as seen with
RBD, exacerbation of RLS, and obstructive sleep-disordered breathing
such as OSA. We recommend mental health practitioners take a mindful
and systematic approach grounded in a basic understanding of drug
mechanisms and the psychopharmacology of sleep and wake (see Chap-
ters 4, 6, and 7). This should yield success in most clinical situations. Re-
ferral to a sleep specialist is indicated in more challenging situations or
in treatment-resistant sleep disorders.

“It is true that, in times past, our Capital has been shifted on
more than one occasion of national danger, but in those days
our enemies were not able to push their armies far into the
interior of our country for indefinite periods, and were
compelled to withdraw after brief expeditions. The position of
affairs to-day, however, is very different, so that we can obtain
no reliable guidance from precedents of history. As regards
the province of Shensi, it has always been a centre of wars
and rebellions; its people are poverty stricken, and there is no
trade there. Seven centuries ago, Hsi-an was an Imperial city,
but is now anything but prosperous. Its vicinity to Kansu and
the New Dominion territories, infested with Mahomedan
rebels and adjoining the Russian Empire, renders it most
unsuitable as a site for your Majesties’ Capital. Supposing
that the Allies, flushed with success, should determine on an
advance westwards, what is there to prevent them from doing
so? If ten thousand miles of ocean have not stopped them,
are they likely to be turned back from a shorter expedition by
land?”
After referring to the fact that the cradle of the Dynasty and the
tombs of its ancestors are situated near Peking, and that it is
geographically best fitted to be the centre of Government, the
Memorialists remind the Throne that the foreign Powers have
promised to vacate Peking, and to refrain from annexing any territory
if the Court will return. These ends, they say, will not be attained
should the Court persist in its intention to proceed further westwards,
since it is now the desire of the foreign Ministers that China’s rulers
should return to Peking. In the event of a permanent occupation of
Peking by the Allies, the loss of Manchuria would be inevitable. The
Memorialists predict partition and many other disasters, including
financial distress, and the impossibility of furnishing the Throne with
supplies at Hsi-an or any other remote corner of the Empire. If the
Court’s decision to proceed to Hsi-an is irrevocable, at least a
Decree should now be issued, stating that its sojourn there will be a
brief one, and that the Court will return to Peking upon the complete
restoration of peaceful conditions. “The continued existence of the
Empire must depend upon the Throne’s decision upon this matter.”
The Memorial concludes by imploring their Majesties to authorise
Prince Ch’ing to inform the foreign Ministers that the withdrawal of
the allied armies will be followed by a definite announcement as to
the Court’s return.
In a further Memorial from the Viceroys and Governors, it is stated
that the Russian Minister for Foreign Affairs had suggested to the
Chinese Minister in St. Petersburg, that the location of the Capital at
Hsi-an would certainly prove undesirable, in view of the poverty-
stricken condition of the province, and that their Majesties would no
doubt, therefore, proceed to Lan-chou fu, in Kansu. Referring to this
interesting fact, the Memorialists observe:—
