I have a friend of mine who told me that he was sleeping almost 14 hours a day. When I told him that sleeping excessively was often a form of depression, he acknowledged that in his case it was true. He explained that he was really depressed over a diagnosis he recently received from his doctor.

Feeling concerned I nervously asked, “What was the diagnosis?”

He said, “The doctor told me that I have insomnia.”

I can’t pinpoint it, but something about his answer really has me confused.
