I'm curious if anyone else gets depressed during the cooler months of the year. It's still bright and sunny and in the 70's but it's like my mind just automatically starts reacting to the impending fall/winter seasons. I have already begun to get that feeling of emptiness, yet it starts racing with thoughts. I just get a sense of dread and loneliness. It's like my energy starts draining from my body and I get a sinking feeling. It's disturbing and alarming. I've already put up full spectrum light bulbs that I keep in year around so I don't get that artificial feeling from regular light bulbs. I'm stocked up on vitamins, especially B12. I just can't help but feeling so down. I'm not sure if it's because every fall/winter something traumatic happens to me, whether self-inflicted or not. But usually these events occur because of my depressed episodes. These seasons remind me of bitter regrets in life, which I inflicted on myself due to my depression. can anyone relate? Does anyone have any advice?
