Coping With Seasonal Depression

[Hazel]

Changing seasons affect mood and motivation. Do you experience seasonal depression or winter blues? What coping methods, light therapy, outdoor activity, or socializing, have helped you handle it better?

I don't usually deal with seasonal depression, maybe around the time summer hits as I can't stand the heat, but that's more of an issue I have with just not liking to sweat . I also like the winter season as it's much cooler, the only downside is having to shovel snow, which I hate to do. Other than that, if I am depressed, I usually find something to do to take my mind off of it, and that usually helps.

For me,. it's during the winter. I tend to be very lazy during that period. It makes me lazy. So, what I do is go outside even if it’s cold, just for some light. It helps me a bit. But in most cases, I just distract myself with games or shows till it passes.
