My Least Favorite Time of the Year?

You're looking at it. I hate winter. I hate cold. The holidays are ok, but I think there's a bunch of added stress with all the, "We should this. We have to do that. EAT EAT EAT!!!" And more than anything? I hate the dark.



I work 7am to 6pm which means I'm gone from my house from 6:30am until 6:30pm. I drive in the dark both ways. I don't have windows in my office. I usually eat in my office in an attempt to be healthy during fat season.

I get depressed. Really depressed. I very much suffer from a case of the SADs and it's just ridiculous. I personally do not think it's bad enough for me to medicate the problem. I know that first day when I see sun still shining as I'm leaving work, I'm in a better place. That day was yesterday and today? Super productive! Super positive! Super good mood! It's like clockwork.

Like I said. Ridiculous. I wish it didn't happen and the thing is, it never starts until about mid-December. Right as the holidays are ramping up. I usually kick the mood about February. March is always a month of over-excitement which I wasn't aware was also a "thing." It's called Reverse Seasonal Affective Disorder.

Wait, does this mean that I am seasonally bi-polar? Surely not!
