is it normal to get really down during the winter time as opposed to summer?

just curious.

its funny that you ask that because i was just talking about it today. apparently its some kind of proven fact, that people become more depressed in the winter months because its normally darker and the way the cold dry weather is, or dark cold rainy weather is, is brings you down and makes you feel somewhat empty. its shown that theres more suicides in the winter and in places that are always cold. its called S.A.D. (seasonal affective disorder) its happens to a lot of people. something like three fourths of the people who get it are women. to get rid of it you can get this thing called "light therapy" or "phototherapy" with some kind of flourescent light. you should look it up, itd be a lot more helpful. you could also take anit-depressants, but that should always be a last resort if ever an option in anything.
