Primary Outcome Measures:
- Percent of Participants With Depression Remission [ Time Frame: 16 weeks ]
Depression remission was defined if both a and b below are satisfied
- absence of both depressed mood and anhedonia for at least three consecutive weeks
- no more than two other diagnostic criterion symptoms of depression met for at least three consecutive weeks
Secondary Outcome Measures:
- Percentage of Participants in Insomnia Remission [ Time Frame: 16 weeks ]Remission was defined as endpoint ISI<8. The ISI scale score ranges from 0 to 28 with lower scores representing less severe insomnia. A score of 0-7 is interpreted as absence of insomnia.

Detailed Description:
Participants with major depressive disorder and insomnia who meet all study criteria will receive state-of-the-art antidepressant medications and one of two insomnia therapies. The specific therapy for insomnia will be determined by chance (like a flip of a coin), with an equal chance to receive either cognitive-behavioral therapy for insomnia or desensitization psychotherapy for insomnia. The study physician will select an initial antidepressant medication from a list of three possible medications . If that medication is not helpful, another medication may be tried after 8 weeks or in the event of severe side effects.
