Every MD, NP and PA worth a lick addresses sleep issues, diet and exercise first.

BTW, this article states, "Doctors have long considered poor sleep to be a symptom of depression that would clear up with treatments." Yeah, sort of. In truth, I don't know any doctor or health care provider worth a lick who hasn't focused on improving sleep in order to help the patient move toward functionality.

I just despise the way the press pushes nonsense as "fact."
