When's the best time to use the Sunny light box?
Most people find that light therapy in the mornings works best so, if you are just starting out, try this first. Try not to use your light late in the evening though (i.e. within 3 hours of going to bed) as you may find it difficult to get to sleep.
If you have trouble waking up in the mornings then you should definitely use a light box first thing.
