I've never liked the clocks changing. I don't mind the shorter day length, up here it doesn't get sun over the horizon until just gone 09.00 today and it went down, albeit with a beautiful sunset, 15.00 hrs.

I tried a light box, it didn't work for me. My sad was really a huge change of lifestyle and dropping over the winter horizon.In my head I am fine and I'm sure that has more to do with it. I just wish the clocks didn't change and my body rhythm could stay the same.

For me it's a double whammy. I have kidney disease and need vitamin D. Without sunlight my body doesn't produce it so well as I need good sunlight to produce it. So I'm a bit stuck. We should have moved to the south, not the north.

In some respects, I actually enjoy the "squirrel aspect" of winter . but love the cold, bright days. Stand in as much outside light as possible may help. We walk miles when the sun is up.
