Does anyone have any experience with full spectrum light boxes and/or lamps? I'm thinking of buying one but not sure which kind, brand, etc. Any info. would be much appreciated!!

I thought about using one, but I couldn't afford it. I work for Public Health, but worked for Mental Health for a short time. I will see if I can find any information.

Take care

Hi Happy Cat 2003,

I use a light box everyday and have found that with it and my regiment of supplements has help me out a lot. I do have days that not everything works but as a rule, I am doing better then I was. The light box that I use is SunTouch Plus by Apollo. They are a little pricey but if you want to combat SADs, the light boxes are a great help. If you want to check out the light go to www.lighttherapy.com If you have more questions you can e-mail me at rainydaysargon@hotmail.com


Warm Regards,
