In reply to Light Switch Depression, posted by Jim Evans on July 21, 1999, at 11:44:24
For me, it's not that the depression lifts and descends, so much as that I can sometimes be distracted. If I do enough, and protect myself from being calm and relaxed, I can protect myself from the depression, but as soon as I sit down and take a deep breath, I fall apart.
On the other hand, there is also the feeling I get on a sunny day when I open the window shades. The light helps nine times out of ten. Could your patterns have anything to do with light? Maybe getting a grow light might help? That only sounds crazy, full spectrum light is supposed to help some depressives, isn't it?
Good luck and great topic.
