| Core Tip |
Growing evidence highlights the role of chronotype in depression. This review summarizes the association between chronotype and depression, dissecting the underlying mechanisms including neurotransmitter system dysregulation, circadian rhythm disruption, sleep disturbance, and genetic factors. It also explores the therapeutic implications of light therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and pharmacotherapy in the context of different chronotypes. The findings emphasize that evening chronotype is linked to an elevated risk, severe symptoms, and higher suicidality in depression, while morning chronotype may exert a protective effect. These insights could guide future research and personalized clinical strategies. |
