Verilux HappyLight Lucent – One-Touch Light Therapy Lamp with 10,000 Lux, UV-Free, LED Bright White Light & Detachable Stand for Boosting Mood & Improving Sleep

100% makes a HUGE difference
I live in WA state but was born in CA, and it’s dark here a LOT from about November to February. I started noticing I was feeling horrible and in a rotten mood during the winters here, so I got this light and it absolutely makes a HUGE difference in my mood and energy levels. It’s sturdy (I’ve accidentally dropped it) and the perfect size to store when you’re not using it. I’ve even used it for more light in a dim room! It’s important to follow the directions and place the light in your field of vision, and I can’t help but feel like a hatching egg sitting next to it 😬🤷‍♀️ but it absolutely helps me get through WA state winters. Highly recommend!

It’s not hippy voodoo, it’s science people. Consistency drives the best results.
I had my doubts when my therapist recommended I give one of these a shot. Its a pretty expensive solution to what I thought was just a lack-of-coffee problem. I’ve had this light for over a year now and would use it on and off inconsistently or in the wrong way but now that I am working from home I have an opportunity to use it properly and placebo affect aside, I am noticing a subtle difference.I started with it in my bathroom next to the sink as I would get ready in the morning <20 mins a day, then put it near my bed and turned it on instead of hitting the snooze button and just hung out in bed with it on next to me before waking up 20-30mins, then tried it at work and pissed off all my coworkers, finally now working from home I got an iPad mount and mounted it just over my desk beaming down on me from a foot or so above my monitors. I use it for an hour or so each morning, sometimes a little longer and consistently, every workday, same time in the morning, about the same time length. This consistency has really led to some noticeable changes.Mornings are still mornings, which I was never good about but I do notice I'm much more alert in the afternoons, I tend to be more talkative, and my motivation to participate and take initiative is up. Before I wasted a lot of time surfing youtube until my day was over then watched TV all evening but now I feel just enough of a kick of energy after lunch to dig into something and by that time I'm off to the races and my engagement in a project kicks in and keeps me going. I have had vitamin D deficiencies for the past few years which this actually has helped to stabilize along with the help of some vitamins and some minor diet stuff. I also suffer from anxiety, depression, and am ADHD. The depression has subsided, my alertness has actually helped with the anxiety because I feel like I can process my thoughts properly, only thing is my ADHD still needs some boundaries. The excess energy does cause me to move around a lot more and I tend to have this "want" to do a bunch of stuff all of a sudden; like I can't just sit still. This is great when I am bored or have to get started on some work, but bad when it comes to staying focused on the work or at 10 at night when I need to wind down.All in all I had my doubts that this was just another hoax product that doesn't actually do anything and my self fulfilling prophetic approach got me just that, no results. But now that I use it properly I have noticed some slight changes. More than that I receive comments from others which reflect my energy levels and mood which reinforces the fact that I am not the only one seeing a difference. My family comments that I'm much more talkative and seem to be in a good mood more often, my co-workers are more receptive to my feedback and complement my work, and my friends are happy to see me coming out to hang out more often instead of going into hibernation.

It’s Bright!!!
Every year I struggle with SAD, seasonal affective disorder, I’ve tried lots of different things to help combat it. My doctor suggested getting a light and I couldn’t be happier!! It’s bright and took about 3 days to get use to using it. I’m so glad I stuck with it. It’s really made a huge impact especially regulating my sleep cycle and being able to wake up not feeling completely drained.

Not really my thing.
We are having lots of rain lately, so I’ve been using this light every morning and I am not sure what my opinion is. It’s very bright and I don’t like it in my eyes, so I just turn the light away from me and it’s still bright and still bothering my eyes. Basically, I have to hide the lamp completely, so I don’t have eye contact with it but still able to enjoy the light from the wall. And it is pretty bright even on the wall. So, for me this doesn’t work unless i just want to light up some walls or dark corners.

Je travaille de nuit et j’habite au Québec, donc mon horaire fait en sorte que je vois très peu la lumière du jour durant les longs mois d’hiver. La dépression saisonnière me frappe à chaque année. J’ai bon espoir que cette lampe m’aidera à améliorer ma qualité de vie.Je l’ai reçue hier et ma première séance est déjà faite. La lampe est très légère et simple d’utilisation. Elle peut se transporter facilement dans un sac ou une valise. J’apprécie particulièrement le pieds amovible qui nous permet d’ajuster l’angle de la lampe à notre guise, que ce soit de façon verticale ou horizontale. Je recommande!
