    I found that feeding my brain helped a lot.

    I think he was implying that your problem was the high lighting.

    Just protect your brain when you get new bulbs, you don't want to burn it. I still say it was under too much light.

    my open brain "acclimated" inside the hour. Be ready for it to have a similar reaction when you get new bulbs.
