and another thing to possibly try is a dawn simulator. I was telling Nelly the other day, I'm taking a chronobiology class, and we've talked about SAD since it's a circadian rhythm problem and that's what my class is about. Dawn simulators are alarm clocks that gradually brighten a light for the 30 minutes or so before the alarm goes off, simulating sunrise. It helps with SAD by waking you more naturally, and exposing your photoreceptors to light.
I don't know where to find them though, I came across some on a Google search, but they're a little pricey. If you have a SAD diagnosis, maybe insurance can help? I'm not sure.
