In reply to SAD light box info--thanks to Angela!, posted by Noa on November 13, 2000, at 17:06:18
As can be seen in the Tips folder I have been using a light box since last winter. It is very effective as a complement to my AD's. Living in upstate NY we tend to get early winters as afr as sunlight goes.
I got my box from Apollo and have never had a problem with it. My pdoc wrote a letter to my insurance company and they paid for half of the box cost. It can be done.
Hope you have a good experience if you try the lights.

> Angela, I think I might have a seasonal pattern as an overlay to my depression, and was starting to think about getting a light box, but am pretty broke. My therapist asked if insurance might cover it, and I didn't know. BUT, I went straight to your folder at PBtips and there it is--sample letters to insurance companies. Thank you. I'll keep you posted.
