Seasonal depression kicks me in the arse, too, which is why I'm taking my AD now. Around spring it's generally not necessary & the anxiety that often accompanies AD use is no longer an issue. I hope you have a light box. I use one each morning & I think it has some restorative properties...I live in a place that's particularly cloudy in winter & the light box mimics sunlight. You can find models in various price ranges on Amazon.
