Purpose
This study includes two sub-trials. Both are included in this singe registration since they have parrallel inclusion of participants and have been approved by the Swedish ethics board together in one application.
Trial 1 includes patients with both insomnia and major or minor depression. Participants are randomized to either a combined therapist guided Internet-CBT for insomnia and depression, or to Internet-CBT for depression with an addition of a placebo intervention for insomnia. The primary purpose is to evaluate changes in insomnia and depression severity for the combination treatment compared to the depression treatment, after treatment and at 6 and 36 months follow up. A secondary purpose is to evaluate cognitive functioning before and after treatment, as well as cost effectiveness. Recruitment is done in the Stockholm County through mass media and the Internet psychiatry clinic's regular patient recruitment.
Trial 2 includes patients with insomnia who do not meet criteria for major or minor depression. All participants start therapist guided Internet-CBT for insomnia. After 4 weeks patients that are judged to be at risk of treatment failure are randomized to either continued treatment or treatment with added support intended to enhance outcome. The primary purpose is to evaluate change in insomnia severity for participants who get added support, compared to continued treatment with regular support level. A secondary purpose is to evaluate cognitive functioning before and after treatment, as well as cost effectiveness. Recruitment is done in the Stockholm County through mass media and the Internet psychiatry clinic's regular patient recruitment.

- Change (from baseline) in Insomnia Severity Index (ISI) [ Time Frame: 0, 6 and 36 months after treatment ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]7-item, self-rated questionnaire measuring change in insomnia severity. Bastien, C. H., Vallières, A., & Morin, C. M. (2001). Validation of the Insomnia Severity Index as an outcome measure for insomnia research. Sleep Medicine, 2, 297-307.
- Change (from baseline) in Montgomery Asberg Depression Rating Scale, MADRS-S [ Time Frame: 0, 6 and 36 months after treatment ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
Defined as secondary outcome measure in Trial 2. The use of two primary outcomes in trial 1 is motivated since participants have both diagnoses and the purpose is to look at effects on both insomnia and depression.
The MADRS-S is a 9-item self-rated measure of change in depression severity. It also screens for suicidality.

- Change (from baseline) in Sleep Diary [ Time Frame: Directly after treatment ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]One week of self-ratings on a number of sleep parameters, resulting in measures of sleep latency, total sleep time, sleep efficacy, number of nighttime awakenings, subjective sleep quality and daytime functioning.
- Changes (from baseline) in Actigraph data [ Time Frame: Directly post treatment ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]An actigraph is placed on the participant's arm for one week. They measure participants' activity in the form of movements. It will be used for acquiring sleep data and calculate sleep latency, total sleep time, sleep efficacy, number of nighttime awakenings and daytime activity.
- Change (from baseline) in Trimbos and Institute of Medical Technology Assessment Cost Questionnaire for Psychiatry (TIC-P) [ Time Frame: 0, 6 and 36 months after treatment ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
Health economic questionnaire evaluation cost for health care, absence of work capacity and related costs.
