   Depression can be associated with REM periods that start earlier and last   
   longer than usual, and REM is associated with the most vivid dreaming.   
   Early REM comes in very handy for OBE and LD induction, because you may   
   still be relatively alert when your dream starts.  Having experienced   
   depression on occasion, though, I don't recommend it as a lucidity   
   induction aid. :-)
