I use the Solgar brand, I have tried others but they didn't help at all. I take 3,000 IU a day. I noticed an improvement after only about 2-3 days. I am not sure what dosage you should start with, everyone is different. I was on 2,000 IU's a day and doing "ok" but not "great" and my doctor upped it to 3,000 and it is the perfect fit for me, so I guess keep trying until you feel the way you want. I take it all at once and don't spread it out through the day. Hope this helps someone else as much as it has helped me!!!!! I take Vitamin D3.

Notice things like plants, clouds etc. Take up hobbies that can get you outside. I press leaves and flowers then make them into cards for friends. Keep busy and dont dwell on the past. If the nights are dark, then get try doing some knitting, embroidery, sewing or even painting. It is surprising the skills that we can have buried away. Just try and be active. If you work, then put aside some time for yourself. Have a long leisurely bath and cleanse routine built into once per week. Got kids, then make little things for christmas with them, pick up pine cones and paint them or make little animals out of them. I do suffer from SAD every year, i didnt know what it was at first and felt this nawing depression creep over me every september, why, because i love september, yet october was dreak. Dont worry you are not alone, i get around it by doing the things i have listed above but i definatly feel different once March comes around and the nights are light bright and beautiful, just dont let it take over your life, beat it!!!

Sometimes, once in a depression, it's really hard to make yourself get up and get daily exercise. So, if you can make sure to start a regular daily exerercise regimen prior to the winter months, the chance of staving off the depression is great.

It is recommended that you get your blood levels checked by a Dr. if you are planning to take more than 2,000 iu's daily - I struggle to not get depressed every winter and my mood is very good these days. SAM-e is reported to be good for healthy mood and joint comfort. I take about 1200 mg a day. Lovint it! I started taking SAM-e (S-adenosylmethionine) and 1000 iu’s of Vitamin D-3, daily.

GNC has them. Also, if it's dark or dreary weather where you live for long periods of time, get day-glo lights. They look more like natural sunlight than regular light bulbs. Sounds silly, but it makes a difference. Vitamin B-12 tabs work well for me. GNC has them.
