I suffer from S.A.D. too but I take an antidepressant, and that seems to help. I live in Michigan and we're usually pretty gray during the winter. We have had a little more sun than usual, but right now it's icky - with snow and sleet coming. Goody. Talk to your doctor about this if you haven't already. He can help. Best of luck and God bless! I wish winter was over.

I tried those lamps once while in the hospital. Didn't do a thing for me.
