Anyone else struggle with this? Not so much Seasonal Affective Disorder, but just generally feeling down during the winter months?

Maybe get one of this sun light bulbs, used for SAD. Plus you will have an empty house with your daughter being out. So yes, it could be hard for you. Are you taking any antidepressants? Before all this other stuff I took Effexor (I think) for SAD when the days started getting shorter. It helped. Do you like doing crafts? Maybe volunteer somewhere?
