I have written an article on SAD (on the front page of the site). I know I am not the only member to suffer with SAD and thought this would be a good place for comments.

Excellent Madz - well done!!!

I have SAD (suprise!! LOL!) and have a lightbox which is fantastic. I use it for 30 mins to an hour each day and it sits just to the left of my PC. Its on now!!! It goes from 2500 to 10000 lux (I think - I can't find the book) and it really does make a difference. When I was pg, I had to put a large book over my bump cos the midwife said Ella would be able to see the light!!! LOL!

Its a funny thing SAD, but I have to say the light therapy keeps me going. I like to think of myself as a moth - like in bugs life where they all flock to the light saying "I can't help it, its so beautiful"!!!!!!!!
