SAD Light Box Testimonials
I purchased a 'Britebox' from you in 2005, and I must say the effect was immeasurable. I was suffering from a bout of stress and depression for the second year in a row, when I heard about SAD and light box treatments; and after scouring the net for a week,
I chose to purchase from your company and bought the 'Britebox'. Everyone's advice for the preceding weeks whilst I was ill, was to 'go outside, get some fresh air and exercise, go out and feel the sun'. Although I am very active during the summer, this was absolutely the last thing I wanted to do,
and actually couldn't get the motivation to do those things I knew would help me. But within 12 days of receiving the 'Britebox', and using it every morning, I was literally alive again, feeling ready to go out! I gradually started taking walks to see my family, exploring my local footpaths again,
and swimming! I was back in work in less than 4 weeks! I have used it every year since, and have staved off these awful dull periods in my life!
Many thanks

Dear Mark
I am absolutely delighted with my Britebox and feel so much better than last winter when I would have cheerfully jumped out of a window!! My mood has changed completely - I am more positive, relaxed and happy and I haven't felt anxious for weeks! Nothing has changed in my life except for the SAD light box, so I know light therapy works.
Many thanks!

Dear Britebox,
I have been using my Britebox for nearly two weeks and the results have been amazing. I have even visited my GP to inform her of the results. For the past three years I have suffered with what I now know is Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD). I am a school teacher and commuted seventy-eight miles per day and I just thought the long hours and traveling were just making me feel awful. I was convinced that my workload, which is severe from September to May, was the cause of my problems. I had put up with it for three years and thought that by moving jobs to a school 5 minutes down the road would cure my problems. It had no effect whatsoever. I was getting gradually worse. I suppose the most significant symptom of SAD for me which indicated there was something wrong was the fact it was taking me between 15 and 30 minutes to get out of bed and get dressed. I had all the other symptoms also, especially a craving for sweet things, waking at least one hour before I should and being able to sleep at the drop of a hat during the day. I felt depressed but only because I was so tired. I had heard about SAD before but to say I was skeptical was an understatement. I did some research on the Internet and was shocked when the symptoms matched exactly to the way I felt. I rang several companies and realised I had to be wary of cheap versions that were not medically accredited and I wanted a box that you did not have to be too close to.
Britebox were fantastic, there was no pressure to buy and the advice given was second to none. I ordered the Britebox on a 60-day sale or return. I will be honest; I thought I would be sending it back. There is no way it is going back! I use it for 30 minutes a day. I now get dressed in a few minutes and spend the next 30 minutes reading e-mails whilst the Britebox is switched on using the 30-minute timer.
I suppose there is no guarantees it will work for everyone but it has got to be worth a try. It has totally transformed my life because I knew I simply could not keep living the way I was.
