I am a recent graduate. I had a lot of problems and issues previously. I want to thank you, because as I watched your videos I became aware of what actually happening in my mind that caused so many issues like attention seeking behaviour, poor time management and something as severe as OCD. Thank you so much Emma ma’am . :) I am and have been low and in achieving goals (naturally, yes.) Trying to better with help from your videos. You are really so nice.

I can only praise everything said in this video. I have suffered from SAD since I was in my teens (now in my early 40ies), because I live in Sweden where we have really dark winters. Last Christmas I got a large light box, and what a difference it makes! Even my cat sits in front of it and enjoys the light, so I think it works for real 😅😁 I got a similar large model, tested and labelled "best in test" that year. I take vitamine d, go for walks during my lunch breaks and sit in front of my box all morning. Keeping SAD away that way ☺️

Sunlight doesn’t just help prove with SAD, but with normal depression or anxiety too. It does everything you explained in this video. The sun literally resets my brain and all of its emotions, clears my congestion in my nose, cures my diet pattern. And makes me FEEL more, wherever I’m depressed. I live for the sun

Lighting has a massive effect on my ADHD brain. That’s why I have 15 colored smartbulbs throughout my house. I can use my iPhone to make each lightbulb any color I want. I also have a “sunlight” light but for some reason I don’t like it. Not sure why. But I sure love using my colored smartbulbs to enhance my mood.

100% sleep and light impacts depression. When I was working overnights and early mornings inside a concrete building where I got no sun and had a consequencely poor sleep schedule...I spiraled into depression. When I finally threw my hand up and quit my job entirely (I didn't work for 8 months straight) I was able to reset my sleep schedule to waking with the sun. I found sleep easier and my depression resolved. I no longer take antidepressants now that I sleep more and have a better job with regular hours that allows me to rise with the sun. I also am starting to use a light therapy lamp. It's really a far cry from the last few years where just getting out of bed was an insurmountable chore.

I'm so thankful for your videos. Because of your videos I've become more aware of my mental health. I've been denying my background depression for many years and this year was the last straw. I'd been doing natural alternatives and they worked for a little while but this month I took the plunge and tried wellbutrin and omg... I went from being unable get up off my couch for days to having positive thoughts of the future, difficult tasks don't seem so daunting anymore. It's amazing. I'm also incorporating the natural alternatives as well, I got a red lightbulb for my bedroom to keep my circadian rhythm. My sleep has gotten so much better. I actually dream at night again. Anyway. Thank you for your channel.

Good idea to get a bit ahead of any curve we might already be a little behind on. Conscientious and just good thinking. Winter is coming, but there’s no need to be nervous, get a lamp and if you can, get into the sun while you’re able, but don’t worry, it will still be out in the winter too.

I noticed what you said on a camping trip , by the camp fire I would get sleepy very early. So i would go to bed a few hours sooner than normal. I would also wake up as the sun came up, with out a alarm clock. It felt great. Animals in the wild follow different sleep schedules based on season . Like you said less in the summer more in the Winter. Our problem is our modern society goes against this, and we have alot of issues because of that. Cant have a cookie cutter indoor life. WE were made to stand in the light outside ** Keep in mind we do need some UVB light to produce Vitamin D EACH day. So spending time outside in the sun is best.

This is very interesting--thank you. I think I accidentally set up light therapy for myself, and it's been working. I live in an area of the US where about 50% of the days are spent under heavy cloud cover. I purchased a large light box a few years ago to try out light therapy, but the instructions I saw at the time recommended that you look directly into the light. Doing so seemed to give me headaches, so I stopped using it that way. Instead I put it on my kitchen table facing up; the overhead room lights were dead so this supplemented available light. (My cat likes lying on it as well--it's warm and big enough for him to enjoy!) Okay, now fast forward to WFM because of the pandemic. My computer is set up on the kitchen table, and the light box is to the left of it and just a bit farther away than the computer screen. So just by dumb luck I've been spending a lot of time with the light at the proper distance and in a good location while I'm working. It seems to me that I'm not experiencing winter depression to the extent I usually do. It hadn't occurred to me until I saw your video that this is probably the reason. I mean, I still experience some stress from the normal sources and a sense of isolation, but it definitely seems better than I would expect, especially in February!

Great reminder for this time of year, thanks Emma, especially here in dark Scotland! Have pulled out my light box, and have shared this helpful video with others. I think people can often forget we are natural beings evolved to be in nature living in this modern world! For the UK I recommend Lumie for light boxes and also wake up lights. If people buy directly from their website (which has good information too!) they can get a 45 day free trial on any of their lights.

Question: Is there a relation between modern media (TV series/Movies for examlple) getting more violent and depressing, having any influence on actual number of depressions in a given population? I somehow had that question in mind when i remembered that they use this therapy (or something similar) in norway or sweden, because of the days get really short there.

@David Individual @Human Sorry for the late reply. I got out of the habit of watching most modern TV series and movies. Some Movies and Series made in the 50s, 60s and 70s are mostly much less violent and way less depressing than what they make these days. Maybe it's just my personal taste, but i don't want to feel the need to take a shower whenever i watch TV. Several months ago i started to watch the news only once a day, just to know what's goin on, but i don't involve in "social Media", aside from occasional KZbin comments and i mind staying much more positive myself. It's funny, but i have noticed that i feel much less distressed and anxious since i started with this.

Aside from the 10,000 LUX and having the light come from a downward angle, what other considerations are there for choosing a good lamp? Have you seen the Sunrise Sensation lamps? What is you opinion on whether they would be effective? I do like that the Carex daylight is based on the lights they used in the clinical trials but its base is really big and clinical feeling. If I had multiple rooms or storage options it would be no question to go with it but I only have a bedroom and very little storage space. The Sunrise Sensations lamps say that they produce 10,000 LUX but it looks like they may be more diffuse and they are all angled on a base that points up instead of down. You could place them on a higher shelf but they would still be pointing up instead of down. (looking mostly at the smaller BrightBox)

I'm wondering if I could also use studio video lights also for this purpose? Such as Godox SL100D which at 1 meter puts out 32 100 lux of 96+ CRI quality 5600K or 6500K (depending on the model) daylight. Thus it is much brighter than many light therapy lamps which only put out 10 000 lux at 30 cm. Not sure about its specific wavelengths though, but if it's 96+ CRI then I guess the spectrum should be pretty even and thus usuable for therapeutic purposes, right?

By the middle of my shift I'm in my groove and listening to music, jamming out with my customers and having great conversations for the rest of my evening. It's the kindness I get back from my customers that somehow erases my hopelessness. Prior to rideshare driving I would walk around Wal Mart and force myself to say hello and God Bless You to strangers and I would get positive reactions that would improve my mood.
