Probably not: Check to see what you are eating -- and drinking. Are you ingesting caffeine laden drinks or eating a lot late in the evening? These could be contributing to insomnia. The other possibility is that you may be experiencing the opposite of depression, a slightly manic state. Ask your doctor to check for bipolar instead of just depression.

Depression: I would question whether your eating is causing your insomnia, eat more carbohydrates in the evening and make sure you get enough protein during the day. Confide in someone close to you to help you uncover what is keeping you up at night, if insomnia continues consult a clinical psychologist. Best wishes.
