It's pretty chilly already, with few bright days. The thoughts of long dark days through winter can be depressing.

What raises your mood and keeps you occupied.

Right now, mainly a deep will to survive, no matter how mean the voice in my head gets (and it's pretty nasty). And the knowledge I am not alone and many people fight like I do when the days are dreary and the nights long.

One good thing about long nights. They are good for stargazing. I have loved astronomy since I was a small boy.

you are definitely not alone FightingTheDark

Stargazing / astronomy is a fabulous hobby, plenty of time to enjoy this through the winter.

Look after yourself
