Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether bright light phototherapy can improve depressive symptoms in hospitalized patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) with subsequent effects on quality of life and illness recovery. It is hypothesized that phototherapy will improve depressive symptoms and decrease length of stay in depressed patients with CF who are hospitalized.
