That is great because I was and am mostly anti tanning bed BUT, have found that it has positive effects in small doses. It has been shown to help people with SAD{seasonal affective disorder} depression that can present itself in places that sunlight is lower; like the Pacific/Northwest or other places , UV deprived. They have shown the anti-depressant percentage of prescritptions written and rates of suicide were much higher and now know that some patients highly benefit from the use of UV light{it does not have to be a tanning bed} but; in this case; I want to go to a tanning bed from being indoors or in a vehicle since early March and just overall lack of sun exposure. I had bought 100 minutes before I left home, just because I will only use a stand up bed and they are usually those strong uva/uvb high pressure beds{sometimes called platinum}; I worked at a salon, one of my jobs during high school and I can burn in just 4 minutes !! They are not like the regular beds at all ; one is so strong that is has an 8 minute maximum, no matter how dark your skin is. So I will start w 3 min and wait a day or two depending on skin color changes.
Kind of looking forward to it!! THE STORIES I HAVE; about my experiences at a popular salon (35 beds) . Omg; I was young and things happen there that are just unbelievable, crazy, gross, and plain wierd!! It was good exposure/ experience for me at a young age as I saw what grown adults were capable of !! Omg!
