3. I am with you here.....
I freaking hate this season and this year especially. The last week has easily been one of the worst weeks of my life to go with my malaise (the highlight...using the word malaise).

4. I like Xmas, just I can't get into the Xmas spirit.............
I don't want to hear "let it snow, let it snow, let it snow".

Just another Season where people give themselves an excuse to get drunk and/or spoil their brats. ;)

8. Being divorced, it really gets to me....
And my kids all grown up and doing their families things...... And me having to deal with my 80 yr old parents is just too much really. I was just thinking today about how this is the most depressed I have ever been in my life.

6. Make 14 snow angels
If you ain't smiling by then at least you will be cold enough to run in next to the fireplace/stove and warm up with a cup of coffee/hot chocolate.

Most of my days are like the previous ones too though. It's not just this season. For me, it's all of em.

:hug:

17. Sure seems like it.
My mood can be so negative at times, and believe it or not, I'm actually an optimistic, nice person. :)

But in this state of mind, EVERYBODY and anything seems to bug me. :(

I WANT to get off my fanny and do things, but it's dark most of the day and minus 40 below. Just want to hibernate. :)

19. You might want to think about getting a light box
Unfortunately not cheap; a cursory internet search indicates the cheapest are $100 US, but they're supposed to help a lot. Failing that, drink a lot of V8 and/or orange juice. Anyway, they've always helped me in winter.

21. A light box will work..if
If the depression is just seasonal affective disorder..It is worth a hundred or two to find out. If it is always dark, as you said in a n earlier post, this could be the solution. However, if this last a very long time, you need to seek help...best of luck..solar.

20. I really love Christmas
But I've been pretty much alone the last two years. Makes me feel so down. So I can relate. Hopefully yours won't last all season like mine seems to. I went out tonight to a singles thing, and I think I am even more down after that than I was before I went. Oh well, this too shall pass. Right? Nothing lasts forever, not even the bad times. Hang in there. Hugs!
