For the past 3 days, I feel good For me, that means being able to get up when the alarm goes off and it's still dark, and think, 'okay, I have things to do' instead of 'meh, whatever'. I go to work and don't hate it, I just do it and try to be good natured. I have tackled some cleaning jobs at home that were put off for forever. I noticed how wonderful the cold ( 5 degrees ) air smelled today.

I have been taking the Wellbutrin for almost a year, and consistantly exercising, and started a Light Therapy Box use since December; but I think the key for me is also the foods I eat.

I've been having whole foods or minimally processed (the lowfat dairy stuff) for the past 5 days, and maybe that's the last ingredient in my mix of 'what makes me feel good'. I had been having LOTS of sweet and cakey stuff for the past month (yeah, holiday goodies) and I had my usual dark feelings up through Christmas. Bleh.

Just had to share my "feeling good!" feelings with you all

Congratulations VM, thats great to hear. I'm glad the light box is working for you as well.

That's quite a beautiful description of what feeling better really is.

i know exactly what you mean -- i am currently going through finals, and, for the first time in my life, i'm not worried about them. i'm studying -- but not worried. healthy food is a miracle.
