Also, it is getting brighter in the AM, you may want to fix your window coverings to block out all light.
I've been having more insomnia in the past few weeks, especially through the 3 storms we had on the east coast. aaaargh.......I know the low light of winter makes me depressed sometimes, but I get happy when I watch the sunset. I agree, and will test it this time, as soon as Spring is here.
Getting slowly warmer, but that can change. Today I felt "inside" the call of Spring not far away. It was like a pull toward it. By now, though I also def think some people just adapt better to a certain climate.....for those of us who have off and on depression light is definitely important. And we get more natural Vitamin D from the sunlight. This is so essential to good health, I get prescribed once weekly, 50,000 IUs. Sleep well, I know, I'm up at 4:20 am.
