This is my mood for the day! Grateful to be breathing this fresh air.

SAD light location and use for programmers?

It’s been a grey winter, and looking to stay that way. I work remote, so I was thinking of getting an SAD light. But I remember from years ago when I had one (and worked in an office) that if I put it next to my monitor it gave me a headache and made my monitor hard to see. Those of you using SAD lights, where do you put them,...

Just a word of caution for anyone with bipolar, using it for longer than recommended can trigger mania.

The transition from the holiday season back to the normal drudgery is so depressing. Is there any way to make Jan / Feb less depressing?

like, it’s still dark at 5pm, there are barely any sports on, still bitterly cold and austere and it hurts to go outside, but you’re not even looking forward to christmas or the new year. the new year is here, and it’s largely the same as last year. except you’re getting older.

You can also get a light box/mood lamp. They help produce vitamin D and alleviate seasonal depression.

So many times this. I love my light box. It keeps me sane.

I’m honestly not sure, I’ve heard that camels spit at you. I’m sure these llamas are trained to not be assholes.

That’s a fair point, they should consider people with allergies.

I plan on doing this for my son when he is ready to save for a car.
