I had severe SAD to the point of having a mental break where I told my wife I was flying that very day to Miami to get away from the cold. I didn’t end up flying to Miami, which is likely why I’m still married…

So I ended up spending $300 on LED bulbs, both corn bulbs and 200W equivalent, bought some 7-Way splitters for my ceiling fan so it’s holding 28 light bulbs (people have joked I have a “biblically accurate ceiling fan” because it’s so bizarre looking, like a weird glowing biblical angel), and get about 10,000 lux in my home office now. As a bonus, I don’t have to run a space heater in my home office (since I only need it in winter, I’d have been using that electricity anyway via a space heater). Solved the issue completely for me.
