I suppose "weird" is the wrong word. "Counter-intuitive", maybe. ;) I'm used to a different kind of depression, involving more self-loathing and feeling useless/worthless and suicidal ideation. (I'm not actually suicidal, I just think about it a lot when I'm depressed). So having day-after-day of "everything seems pointless and I don't want to work, or be at home, or play games, or do anything, actually, except sleep" was more unusual for me. And thus went unnoticed longer.

I think you're right about the automatic CBT. I did mood-tracking daily for a few years, and that helped a lot with leveling out my moods. n_n
