light helps

[wallygator]

Lately I have noticed that I feel less stressed and more content. I think the medication really has helped me move in this direction. Today i was thinking of how i used to hide in the shadows of my living areas. low light or darkened rooms, with minimal lighting. Somehow I felt that I was hiding from the world and myself somehow. I decided to install a strong light in my main living area where I play and do stuff like watch too much tv. This new light really feels good, it enhances the room and it feels so much better than the dreary darkness or shadowy mood the room exhibits. I even turn it on in the daytime now because it somehow feels good to have clarity. For a long time I thought I deserved to be in the shadows, but it seems that it was never true. The light helps me to see myself in a better mood and more content with the living space somehow. I no longer want to hide even if I am by myself. I like that.

That is a good feeling… no longer wanting to hide. I am happy for you

Light makes a big difference particularly if depression is involved. Open all your curtains when you get up in the morning and see how much better you feel.
