I need bright light.

I always feel better when all the lights are on in the room. I have struggled with depression off and on sense I was about 16. I have struggled even more with anxiety sense kindergarten. I'm always learning ways to deal. Today I was relaxing in my living room. I turned on a second light and I felt a surge of what I would call seratonin? I didn't even know I needed the extra light.

If you can get full spectrum bulbs or a light box. They are very helpful for that serotonin in the system. Sunlight is a must when you can get it. Wishing you a life full of light, both in your eyes and in your heart.
