Hi
I've had my anxiety and depression reasonably under control with a very low dose of Prozac and a little Buspar.
Last week I started to feel the old feelings of total tiredness, achiness and anxiety. I had been doing really well in the summer, walking 2 miles a day, driving more, socialising like I used to and playing tennis 3 times a week. Then suddenely I didn't want to go out, didn't want to drive and felt totally lethargic. I have come to believe that this is to do with the time of year and that I may in fact suffer with SAD
I ordered a light box because I'm so scared to go back to those awful feelings again and it arrived today. I was so excited to start using it and then read the booklet that said I should consult my doctor if taking anti-depressants! Rang doctors surgery and he's away for the week.
I desperately want to start using this light box to see if I can get my old summer self back.
Does anyone else use a light box and take anti depressants.
I'll also be interested to know what the effects of using a light box have been.
Look forward to positive results
