    I’ve never really got the whole winter gives depression thing. Yea theres less sunlight, but its not like i enjoyed every single minute of sunlight in summer. You can snowshoe or ski through the woods instead of hike. You can fish in a hut instead of off a boat. You can go weeeee down a big hill then realize your cardio sucks walking back up. Learn to dress adequately and for the most part the cold isn’t that big a deal. Sometime i do end up working through all the daylight hours but my job is often outside so i still catch some sun while on the clock.

        I have been, then i do my best to stop the behaviors that are putting me there and start doing the stuff that alleviates it. I haven’t been clinically depressed or had it majorly derail my life but I’ve had some rough stretches.
