I like winter because I enjoy reading and hibernating, but I have some depressed times too. (especially now)The keys are that you are self-aware and move on from your feelings, rather than wallowing in them. Winter is temporary after all.Margarethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17197599882756386184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36183952.post-9773656458384468832013-11-25T19:25:06.970-06:002013-11-25T19:25:06.970-06:00As much as I hate the long hot summers here I don&...As much as I hate the long hot summers here I don't think I could take the being cooped up so much of the time.Paulahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04007728342316668058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36183952.post-49598543144736575352013-11-25T14:10:25.990-06:002013-11-25T14:10:25.990-06:00I swear it looks like you took a picture under my ...I swear it looks like you took a picture under my desk, with all those cords. our house is 60 years old we have the same problem you do.TARYTERREhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14620999913159718018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36183952.post-4292510893266866562013-11-25T13:25:21.138-06:002013-11-25T13:25:21.138-06:00I missed your earlier post somehow.

Some days though, despite all, I have a bit of a shutdown. Thankfully my family know what's going on and are supportive, and it doesn't last long. An older friend of mine, who does do the light therapy, and for whom it doesn't really work, joined Facebook a few years ago at the suggestion of her husband, and she says that actually helped a bit. But what helped her the most was her new grandson and spending a lot of time babysitting him. So maybe Baby Cora will be a big help to you when things get a bit dark.<br /><br />We love you Donna!Lorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08506026496063245730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36183952.post-19084741956401838932013-11-25T10:49:48.838-06:002013-11-25T10:49:48.838-06:00I'll never forget the first time Jesse turned ...I'll never forget the first time Jesse turned on the microwave at our old drafty house in FL.

I have so many things plugged in that I'm afraid one day it will all blow up.<br /><br />I can strongly identify with your winter depression. I'm always lethargic and unmotivated in the winter. Hell,come to think of it, I'm unmotivated and lethargic in the summer, too......<br /><br />I can also identify with you lack of people skills. Ever since I moved to Texas - and especially after my parents died - I have become hermitized. I just don't have the time or energy to socialize. (I'm sure part of it is due to the fact that I'm older, and also because I presently live in the middle of nowhere). I've become a completely different person than I was during my wild gregarious Hollywood years. <br /><br />Sorry for the long comment.....Jonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02619128793632680659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36183952.post-34639711060137327412013-11-25T08:22:58.918-06:002013-11-25T08:22:58.918-06:00Haha...your household electrical plugs look like m...Haha...your household electrical plugs look like mine!!

Vitamin D is supposed to help women. I also think the B6 and B12 vitamins do too. I can tell a difference when I don't take them.
