S.A.D.

I'm starting to think I may have SAD- Seasonal Affective Disorder. It was around this time last year that I started to get really depressed, and this time there's no situational reason for it. I don't know what to do, I feel so terrible. Just crying for no reason and feeling useless and feeling like I have no friends and I'm somehow not good enough as a person. I can't keep myself busy enough to ignore it.

  1. This has been an issue for me as long as I can remember, and it always takes me by surprise, because I can be feeling so great, then the cold hits, and the grey skies, and I'm a mess. What helps - being outside as much as I can, long hot baths, crafting with warm bright colours, closing out the grey with blinds and curtains, keeping up my vitamins... It's a case of managing it as best I can till Spring arrives. All the best with it, keep reminding yourself that it will pass, and you will feel so much more amazing for having come out the other side into the warm sunshine of Summer xx

    1. Thank you... I guess you and I both know that it feels very lonely, so thank you for taking the time to let me know how you cope with it. To be honest I was a little relieved when I figured it out, at least now I know why it's happening! I've bought this lamp that's supposed to help, so I just have it on my desk while I'm studying or crafting. I'm not sure if it's working yet but if I see an improvement I'll let you know. Cosying up when it's cold outside is always fun though. Best of luck, and see you in summer! xx
