Maybe I missed it in the article, but there was nothing about corellation vs causality?
When you are depressed, you will often experience both tiredness and cognitive issues anyway. Which results in longer sleep times due to massive exhaustion from being always on your limit. So maybe they sleep longer because of the cognitive issues?
Can confirm :'(
