I have an expensive light lamp but I can’t use it because it always makes me manic and very anxious

I got a sun lamp for the winter. Last winter i became really depressed and started drinking a lot. Trying to avoid that this year

I havent really noticed any difference yet. Its still kinda light till 6:30pm. Ill use it when its dark at 5:30pm and im in my room cause its cold. Whats been helping me is sitting with my dad in the living room just talking. Its a welcome distraction from depression.
