Overall success this December–I decorated my apartment, participated in the school’s Christmas concert, played Christmas songs in public at the Gingerbread festival, played piano for Christmas service at church, watched several Christmas movies and listened to hours of Christmas music both on Pandora and music I owned.

And I didn’t hate it, nor did I feel extraordinarily depressed this holiday season. So all that immersion therapy must have worked.

Though regular use of the light therapy lamp probably had something to do with it as well.
