Depression thread but I doubt there's anything you haven't heard before. Megadose vitamin D, SAD lamp, get regular outdoor exercise, etc etc.
Alternatively, you could simply "change your mindset" like this moronic article suggests https://www.theguardian.com/science/2020/sep/26/dreading-a-dark-winter-lockdown-think-like-a-norwegian

Surrounded by Norwegian positivity
I'll admit my anecdotal sample size of Norwegians is incredibly small. But the handful I've met and worked with drank tremendous amounts of alcohol and had senses of humor that made Frankie Boyle look like Michael McIntyre.
Not to say they were negative people, but "positivity" wouldn't be the first adjective I'd jump to...then again they were all living further south than before so maybe the extra daylight had an effect.
@everyoneelse - cheers for the suggestions. I'm feeling a bit better, but might double my Vit D dose and have a look at those SAD lamps.
Does anyone have any tips for helping with seasonal mood changes?
I wouldn't go so far as saying I have SAD, but I do find it hard being in this country over winter.
I'm taking vitamin D. Is there anything else that can help?
I almost wonder if it's worth a thread?
Cheers.
