SAD is absolutely wrecking me

[Nhiggs21]

Most of the year I have high functioning depression and anxiety. It’s there but I have the motivation to find ways to help myself. I live in Wisconsin and it now gets dark by 4:30. Immediately after daylight savings everything came crashing down for me. I NEED sunlight to be ok. I don’t even have the motivation to try. I’m doing things that I KNOW are bad for me but unlike normally where I stop myself and find a positive alternative, I JUST KEEP DOING THEM!!! I am sssoooo frustrated with myself and I don’t know how to help myself anymore!

Look on AMAZON and try to find a light for seasonal affective disorder. Also ask you primary care provider to order bloodwork to check your Vitamin D level. I have a rough time from November until after January 1st. I live in upstate New York and it's dark here between 4:30 and 4:45. Having a terrible time right now but am taking it one day at a time.
