> exposure to blue light has a calming effect on one’s mood, That did sound strange. I know that light therapy is used for treating seasonal depression (a sibling comment already mentioned that). 84% reduction in attempts seem pretty significant. They even quoted the accompanying study which showed that it didn't simply shift the suicides to other station that didn't yet have a light installed. I wonder if there is another reason besides just the immediate "blue light make the depression subside" effect. Maybe something like "someone is aware of my pain and they tried to stop me by installing this silly light".
