I used to have seasonal depression. Then I moved to a tropical country on the equator.
Now I just have regular depression.
I thought that's where it came from, living in places without seasonal changes
Seasonal depression comes from the lack of light in winter at higher latitudes. My days are 12 hours of sun (+- 30 minutes) every day all year round.
Hey dont worry, a few times a year you get to look at clouds coming in, the wind pick up alarmingly and get to experience "Am I going to have a house in 3 hours?" Anxiety.
I don’t get what you’re saying. We have strong thunderstorms but nothing on the order of hurricanes or cyclones. The city I live in is called the city of eternal spring because the weather is always spring like. Sunny and mild.
Don't worry, in a couple of years it's going to become a Tropical Depression. Way better, you're still happy even when everything around you is falling apart.

I'm the opposite. I fuckin love going for a walk in the chilly, crisp air when it's cold out. Also less people and it's quieter.
I like the rain. Stay inside, open a window or a door. Watch and listen to the rain. Or go out in a covered area like a porch.
Surviving through November in Finland is good enough.
Finally the fucking winter is over. I was so irritated. No one believes me.
Fuck i need to go outside
Wtf? What hemisphere are you in?
Mate, hate to break the news to you but you're in the minority.

Try not to fall off the ass-end of the earth 😂
That’s a pretty neat map. And what do you know, the center of humanity is Switzerland!
It's more exclusive here, away from you northerners
Posts like this reminds me that good weather is getting closer... Not too long now!
Just happened today. Music on the radio was suddenly great.
FYI: Light therapy lamps are cheap and effective.
Had that recently, it was great
Sun in February? Try April or May.
had this today, felt chumbawamba tubthumping
I don't understand. Please explain.
In basic terms. Humans have a hibernation instinct, from somewhere in our past. When the days start to get short, and we get less sunlight, our brain tries to kick this in. It makes us want to be lethargic and sleep a lot. Unfortunately, modern life isn't conducive to this. When you push past it, the effects are very similar to depression.
Different people are affected to different degrees. Some are downright miserable, others unaffected. It's also possible to treat it. Sun lamps can trick the brain into thinking it's not winter, as vitamin D. The effectiveness of this can vary, however, and it doesn't compete with the real sun jumpstarting your brain back to full functionality.
This is so fitting, literally had this. Such nice wheather today!
Post memes here.
A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.
