I have SAD really bad and i have the light but for me I have to got outside everyday no matter what the weather is, sunny and snowy days make me feel much better but even cloudy days i get outside even if i have to sit in the park, the light can help but i find the more natural light the better if you can do that too

Great question ! I went to my psychiatrist, she let me borrow the one she had. sometimes your health ins. well pay for a light box, You need a dr. to write a script, and submit to your health ins. You can also try your primary. good luck Hugs

They have light bulbs you can buy in the store or I believe Amazon. Not sure what they are called but you can Google it and maybe you will find something affordable

Hello. I know that you can buy the light that you would need. Google it and see what it's called. Google Seasonal Affective Disorder light therapy and see what comes up. Then you can order it online and start using it daily. I've heard that this light helps a lot of people with SAD.
