Has anyone tried light therapy for ppd or just regular depression? Did it help? How often do you use the light, for a typical treatment regimne?

It was recommended to me by a psychiatrist who is also a D.O.

I think it was for 30 minutes a day, in the morning. I wish I could remember the name of the company... it was something online.

My therapist recommended 20 minutes every morning. I am just starting an AD and she said it would help. I have a light box already called the Happy Light. They are easy to find online. It really helps Seasonal Affective Disorder.
