Not to be insensitive but...
...you go right on ahead and do so.
As has been pointed out, this is a real condition. That a pill might be effective is a *bad* thing?
I also realize there's a condition and a pill for everything that ails people these days.
So what. How is that possibly related to kanesa's situation?
[T]here did you get your medical degree? Reader's Digest? Prevention?
Those who shoot from the hip are bound to miss.

Look...first let me state if this affects you then whatever releaves your symptoms is fine in my book.
In the 1980's we (my submarine) tested several lighting configurations. Ostensibly it was to determine the best mix for retaining night vision while using different CRT displays. Most subs used 'rig for red' lighting and green displays. New systems were coming online that used color displays and anyone who has used a 'secret decoder' red gel will tell you...Yellow? What's Yellow?. There were 2 civies and one of them was an 'ocupational behaviorist' and the other was a 'environment designer'. You have to love gubermin double-speak. We tried blues, reds, white, modified white, and gray. They kept coming back to blue and gray. One of the 'scientific' types attributed it to both containing long waves that also make up natural light. When I left in '93 they were phasing in the gray.
Side fact (and the reason for this response). Many people asked about natural lighting and it's effects. The data (at that time) was that sub sailors rarely suffer because of training, attitude and work load. Especially the MANLY submariners on the fast attack boats...right boomer girls? Anywho, they didn't say there WASN'T a condition like S.A.D., but at the time they felt there were more factors involved than just UV deprivation.
Just some more superflorous BS to post on here

Isn't it always "night" on a sub ? :-) :-)
