My sincerest sympathies to anyone who gets seasonal depression...but I don't get it. I actually loves the winter season. I love dressing in layers and going for morning dog walk breathing in the cold air. Doing a run in the cold with the air slicing through my lungs is the best. Slow cooker meals and soups. Staying indoors under thick covers with warm coffee and tea. Holiday decorations and movies/my music. God I love this time of year and I swear my mental health improves a whole grade level.

Anyone else on this site feel the same???

Only when it snows enough to actually be bright outside. The grey drearyness really hits my depression hard. Vitamin d needs to kick in too. Then I'm alright.

I think my eyes are overly sensitive or something because overcast days legit cheer me up, feels like I finally have full use of my face when the sun isn't smothering it all day.

Bright snowy days are absolutely wonderful though for sure.
