PSA for Seasonal Affective Disorder and light therapy
That being said...ask your doctor/mental health professional first and read up on it. As harmless as light seems, it can aggravate some conditions.
Oh, and light therapy is also useful for things like shift work and jet lag.

It really helps me, the big ones are kinda expensive but worth it. They simulate natural sunlight and it doesn't really bother me (I hate harsh light, never leave the hose without a hat). Hope that helps someone

make sure to start treatment early, don't wait for the blues to start, especially if his don't start until after Christmas. the important thing is early detection and early treatment.Snowwalker wrote:My husband always has trouble with the winter blues, esp once Christmas is past. I may just have to check into these.
A bit of palindromic wisdom:
"Step on no pets!"
Casual player.. don't raid, don't PvP. Suffer from extreme altitis
I love pets - combat or non.
