my CPAP machine for my sleep apnea does wonders for me. I use even it when I nap for an hour or so. sometimes I feel it recharges me when I'm stressed or exhausted. I wake up a bit more clear and focused. I'm definitely going to look into a light box. sounds like something I may benefit from. thanks.
