Hello my sunshine friends!

I've been having a rough time lately.

Seasonal depression is draining my energy, causing my joints to hurt, causing me constant headaches, causing me constant negative moods.

I've been getting in hurtful arguments with my mother and brother.

My return to the university has been an endless struggle. One failed assignment, one late assignment, five chapters behind, one assignment due soon that I haven't started, one presentation due soon that I haven't started.

I'm behind on important calls. One doctor call, two university calls, one volunteering call.

I've fallen to one knee and barely holding my ground. I feel like such a sad panda :(

How have you been lately my friend? Hopefully better than me <3

Do you have a light box?

It helped a friend who suffered with SAD.

@RIPKAW My Dad, severely diabetic and suffering from neuropathy to the point where a car ride was torture, called me to say he was thinking of asking my husband and my brother to go elk hunting in Montana.

They did go. They had to ride horseback 29 miles to the outcamp from base camp. I was told it took three guys to get Dad on the horse and five guys to help him dismount.

Dad's explanation: "I figured if I was going to be miserable, I might as well have some fun."

@Fungirlmmm darker days are ahead, but your kind words give me some courage. I mean it when I am grateful

I've been doing about the same as you - a little better here, a little worse there.

I couldn't even last a month in college. Dropping out was one of the best decisions I made.
