description The combination of sleep deprivation, sleep phase advance, and bright light is termed triple chronotherapy (TCT). TCT is a promising treatment for depression, but it is not clear how effective it is for depression resistant to conventional treatments such as medications.

Triple chronotherapy may be a useful method to consider in cases of severe, treatment-resistant depression.
