You wrote, "I should mention that i live about 200 miles east of Seattle, WA. and we have a lot of rain. The suicide rate in Seattle is higher than any city in the U.S."
I was looking for statistics about this on the 'net, but couldn't find anything. Can you refer me to a website that lists incidences of depression and/or suicide by U.S. state or region? I live in rainy S.W. Washington, too, about an hour north of Portland, OR. Seattle is even worse, but we're similar. A *LOT* of clouds. I'm going to try a lightbox soon, too. I spend a lot of time in the garden puttering around in the summer, and playing outside with my two young sons. I noticed getting depressed this winter for sure. Heck, I'll even take a placebo response! :)-Katy
