Thanks Rachel.

Exercise - especially out in the daylight definitely helps me. Only it is so cold it takes drive and motivation (and all kinds of self-bribery ) to get myself out there.

I am definitely better than I was this time last year but the marked decrease in energy levels from just a few weeks ago is taking time to adjust to. I started LCing in May this year so perhaps next year will be even better.

Take Bright-Light Energetic care.

P.S. On second thoughts I am being hard on myself and very critical and judgmental. I never ONCE stayed up until 1-2am last year (seems quite routine this year) and I am up most days by 6.30am - so if I do need a little rest in the afternoon it is quite OK.
