Light therapy for winter SAD
Posted by: Nime on 17 December 2005
Do we have any users or advice on this subject?
There seems to be a few compact flourescent bulbs available now at a fraction of the cost of a typical "therapy light".
Browsing suggests lower light levels over several hours (while watching TV) may actually be better than staring at a very bright light from close up.
The light spectrum is supposed to be important too.
I'd value any thoughts...

Cheerful? Do they come in that flavour??? I had no idea 
Hmm. Have you tried looking in horribly expensive shops? You may need flash to capture the fleeting moment.
