Neurological effects of light?

[Guest guest]

Has this subject been adequately

explored here?

The neurological effects of too

much light in patient's eyes,

diagnosed or not, in denial or not,

is,in my opinion, absolutely vital

to understanding and possibly

in treating our illnesses.

For me, most importantly, recently

developing an increased awareness

of the incredibly complex, little

researched, and poorly understood

effects of too much light in my eyes

has helped greatly. Also, lowering

the light level down to almost

nothing for even a day or two is

amazingly effective to prove cause

and effect. I can only suggest

trying it and reporting the results.

To some extent I have been aware of

this problem for over 35 years,

when I had my first disabling

CFS crash in 1970 at age 16. I have

very carefully protected my eyes from

too much light since then. Disabling

migraines were adequately motivating.

This present awareness allows for the

necessary limitations of time on the

computer, along with other sources

of light. Lowering the light levels

adequately has helped my brain

function at a much higher level,

and my emotions are are affected in

beneficial ways that are difficult

to describe in written words.

I wish I had understood this better

and sooner.

It is said that it is easy to be humble

when you have a lot to be humble about.

This may be the most humbling experience

of greater knowledge and understanding

that I will ever have in my life.

I just wish I knew how to help

everyone understand it.

I'll keep working on it.
