Attention Sad Bros.... Here is a fact your therapist does not want you to know. Fixing your circadian rhythm with light can treat your depression faster than couch talks and drugs... The meta analysis will turn your frown upside down. Bright light is mood medicine. Here's a quick summary and depression action plan. Chronotherapy delivers rapid antidepressant effects. Bright light or a combo of sleep deprivation (wake therapy), sleep phase advance and morning bright light therapy works in hours to days versus weeks to months for drugs or talk therapy. Across randomized controlled trials in this study, chronotherapy beat controls, antidepressants, psychotherapy and exercise for both unipolar and bipolar depression. Why? It directly repairs the broken master clock that is largely responsible for your dumb depression. Here's what to start doing now. Daily Morning bright light within 1 hour of waking. This is the biggest part. Use the special bright light therapy device in the first reply below if you cannot get outside for some reason. ZERO blue light and little green light after sunset (use blue blockers and red bulbs all in the replys below) Consistent early (ish) sleep time Only eat in the day do not eat in the dark If you cant get outside for multiple sun breaks daily, use your red light therapy machine for extra mitochondrial and mood support. Ok thats all for today, sad bros.
