I suffer terribly from SAD. But not this year! (Yet) We moved from Northern Utah to the southern tip of Texas. I think that's what's delaying my SAD because the sun is still shining and it's 80+ degrees. I've been spending more time outside during the day than I did in the cold. Keep your fingers crossed for me! Hopefully things will stay this way.
Love,
Jamie

In the winter, it gets really dark early, there is lack of sun all day, and long gray days of winter.
So, those who are sensitive to the light for feeling better, can get really depressed during the long gray winter days.
Tis the "season" for this disorder! Thus, Seasonal Affective Disorder (S.A.D.)

I've been having a good day today (bad yday, but good today!) and I'm trying to mind my sleep cycle and not nap at 2pm, get up at the same time, etc. It's hard when there's no motivation to get up!
I tried to go out and get some sunlight Friday and I had 3 mAJOR asthma attacks due to the cold weather... the only way I can be outside in this freezing cold is to have a bunch of pumps off of my inhaler (I have cold weather and sports induced asthma), plus a wadded-up towel or scarf shoved in my face and nose to warm the air I breathe! I ended up puking 3 times (1ce in the sink, 2ce outside) from the attacks. I was really dumb to keep going outside!!!
But Saturday and today have been much better. I've been keeping warm and playing scrabble with BF for the last 4 hours (I'm up 3 games to 1, with 1 tie! )!

my family and I played that all thanksgiving break. Its such a fun game. I only managed to win once.. stupid 1 point letters, which I happened to get stuck with frequently.
I hope you continue kicking the bf's booty!

for some reason i had been feeling really down lately too probably the holiday season--ive been listening to the holiday station and everytime i hear a "moving" song that gives me goosebumps, i start to cry. my mom decided the last night visiting our old house before she left my dad would be xmas eve after our candle-light church service. we only scooped up my 2 cats before we headed back to her new home. since then i havent had any really good or special holiday memories to remake that last painful one in 2003 so ive been especially weepy. its weird b/c i cant really pinpoint what i want to make myself feel better yah know? but i understand about feeling like crying all the time. sometimes i just want to fall down and curl into a ball and cry..or hide and cry too. i am sending a lot of hugs your way b/c you sound like you need more then one. dont worry im sure it will get better and things will feel okay soon. i keep telling myself that and if xmas comes and the special people in my life get smiles on their faces b/c of me, then i guess it makes it all worth while. feel totally free to email me if you ever want to ashlynwondrland@yahoo.com we're both in chicago!! do you ever go downtown around xmas time? thats always something i love to do and used to do too. its always special to see the town in lights and snow. hang in there pal
