Seasonal
Depression is a very real thing…
So are you suffering
with depression ? Do you feel worse in the winter then the summer ?
Do sunny days make you feel better and cloudy days make you feel
worse ? Does the cold bring you down and warm weather make you feel
better? Even wind can be a downer . If this makes your depression
worse then your not alone...millions of people who are not dealing
with depression feel down at these times so we can imagine how we
feel in these season changes… Also suicide rates are the highest
between Jan through March… If you live in parts of the world where
this type of weather is common like cold and rain..well your
depression is even higher.. People in Russia with the cold and long
winters have very high rates of depression .. In the USA people in
states like OR and WA also have very high rates of depression...some
of those states because they are so rainy leave a bowl of chocolate
on the kitchen table to help.. BTW dark chocolate is the best for
depression ( mild) . So whats the up side as not everyone can move
to a tropical Island.. well history tells us that great thinkers,
writers, poets, musicians , song ,writers, painters, artist often come
from cold, raining, cloud dark places..see these dark places draw out
the deep inner person. Very few people are as deep in the sun as we
in the dark.. So if your trapped in these dark seasonal places...well
write a poem, a book, a song, pain, get into art work. Counsel people
for only ones who know these dark places can help others in the same
dark places.
From the ashes of
disaster grow the roses of success and though the rain and storm
clouds are in your life today… the sun ALWAYS rises. I pray that
not only the Sun shines on you but that the Son lives in you. He
gives light in the heart even when there is no sun in the sky…
