[quote=Rohag;2365225]Hello & Welcome, Skylark33! I have not experienced this, but "Reverse SAD" is a recognized phenomenon: quote]

Thank you Rohag - I had no idea there was such a thing as Reverse SAD - but it fits exactly. The article really strikes a chord with me - even the trigger theory makes sense. It was on a lovely Spring day in June that my ex husband announced he wanted out of our marriage! This time of year has always been tough for me but it's definitely been worse since then - it had never even occurred to me before. Unfortunately the article doesn't address how to deal with it.
