I keep my blinds about closed anyway....so I probably wouldn't miss it if there were no windows. I would hang up curtains anyway so the room wouldn't look retarded.

Sunlight is necessary for a lot of biological functions, including day / night rhythms. Living in a house without windows, is only viable, if you work outside of the house from 7-23, and only use the house for sleeping.

Maybe that's what is wrong. My house is gloomy all the time!  None of us even turn on lights if we have to. Jackson's room is even painted black. We call our house 'the cave'. LOL! |

I could live in a hole in the ground if need be. Having said that, I would have to get out in the sun once in a while so I didn't go any crazier than I am already.

we live in the dark at night here too. I can't stand to have all the light on. i like watching tv in the dark. the screen gives off enough light. people come over and ask us why we live in the dark at night. it's the norm for us.
I ope up my curtains and blinds during the day though. i love seeing the sunlight shining through the windows.

I adore sun. I just love well lighted rooms, natural light, of course. Having said that, I think I could live, if I were forced, in a room with no doors for a certain period of time.
I don't think I could make it more than 4, maybe 5 months, though.

I like seeing a full moon framing the window... as long as it's not d00ks.

I probably could live in a house with no windows just as long as it had a door so I could go out and get some sunshine and light...
