There is a distant familiarity I'm feeling. Like an erupting volcano is being drenched with fresh cool water. There's like this internal battle going on inside of me, both physically and mentally, that feels so bizarre and freaky but also so welcoming after these winter blues.

Why does this happen? Is it really just the extra daylight that does it?

I just feel weird. I remember feeling this before but can't remember if it happend last year or 5 years ago. I still can't force myself out of the house. I also dont cry or feel down like I have the past few months. I just feel confused and outside of myself. Can someone put words to this?

Chaotic Symphony I've been feeling the same way. The extra daylight helps me, I feel positive about spring and summer. Yet last night a sadness came over me and I'm gripped by it today. I am angry at myself like its my fault the happy is gone! Struggling to feel better and stay that way!

I always love and welcome spring. Winter is quite the drab. Spring is like a breath of fresh air, inhale deeply.

I think maybe it is like cabin fever. With spring ahead I know I'm getting keyed up about being able to get out of the house without freezing or getting wet. I'm feeling a nervousness just waiting and wanting it to be warmer and the sun to shine. Spring is when I feel the best but waiting when it's almost here is bad.

I hope the spring sunshine and warmth make you feel better.

I'm going through what I consider to be a pre-hypomanic state, if there is such a thing. It started before the time change but that's probably because our weather has been uncharacteristically nice the past couple of weeks. At any rate, it's nice to have some energy even though I can't channel it too well.....having some trouble with focus, which is making it hard to do my blog.
