SAD?

Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD)affects an estimated half a million people every winter. It is a form of depression brought on by reduced hours of sunlight and can be at its worse between December and February. I don't have this condition but like many find it hard to be positive when the nights draw in and I'm sure some of you feel the same. I cope with the short daylight hours by making our home as cosy as possible. We have a coal fire in the winter and I put on one of those 60s lava lamps that made a comeback a few years ago. Also if you come to my house in January you will find I still have a Christmas tree up until the end of the month. The lights cheer me up. I love the crisp winter days and try to get out when the weather is good for some brief sunlight. What do you do to get thought the winter months? Let me know.
