Is it really true that the more pillows someone sleeps with the more likely they are to be depressed? (seen on facebook)

Pillows & depression: Good question. I'm not aware of any studies that show a connection between number of pillows and depression. But sleep deprivation is a common factor in teens who become depressed. If you sleep better with some comfy pillows on your bed, that should be fine. If you pile up pillows because of snoring or other sleep disturbance, see your pcp to get checked. Get plenty of sleep. See: http://www.cumc.columbia.edu/publications/press_releases/sleep_depression.html Take care.
