Rising Above The Clouds

Seasonal Depression

Hi Everyone!

It’s that time of year where the sun starts setting earlier, the weather is cooler, and the energy seems to be heavy. Some may even say the energy is off. Many people suffer from seasonal depression, and they don’t realize it. Some people notice that they thrive better in the warmer months, they enjoy being outside in the sun, and they are just happier. If you are one of those people, it’s okay! Please know there is nothing wrong with experiencing seasonal depression and it doesn’t take away from who you are as an individual. It doesn’t take away from your strength or your personality.

Recognizing the shift in your mood and energy is the first step in trying to make changes that will allow you to rise above those emotions.

Some things you can implement to fight against those cloudy days and emotions are:

Tapping into more social connections, whether it be starting a new show with a loved one, reading a book together, or weekly hang outs; things that will allow connection but are still weather friendly.

Starting a new hobby or trying to learn a new skill during the colder months can give you a healthy distraction.

Lastly, seeking therapy, having a safe space and a trusted professional to confide in can be beneficial. During this time of year there are a lot of emotions to maneuver and being aware of what you are experiencing internally can allow for brighter days.
