Re-sharing some bright light stuff I posted a year ago:

I am not an expert on Bright Light Therapy but it looks useful and I have been trying it for a while. Surprisingly, it may be best to do before bed.

Here is one great article. It is VERY readable: Bright Light Therapy in Parkinson's Disease: An Overview of the Background and Evidence 2012 ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articl...

This is the light I use: Lastar Light Therapy Lamp, UV-Free 12000 Lux Max at 12", Sun Lamp with 5 Brightness Levels & 4 Color Temperatures & 6 Timer Functions, 180° Free Rotable Heavy Base Smart Plug Sunlight Lamp for Therapy $56

There is the Celeste Phototherapy clinical trial but the person needs to be able to do appointments on zoom to ask questions of the participant and I think that it is only for those who are on medication like sinemet or similar.

I applied for this trial but there is not a participating doctor in my area. I'd love to hear more about your experience with your self-trial light therapy.

Not what you're looking for?
