mentioned before but in case you're new here, I am one of the 1-6% of the

Yes, it's a real thing and I want to tell you about what it is and, more importantly, what it is not.
When you think of Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), you probably picture someone slinking into depression when the cold winter comes along and the clocks get set back, enveloping them in darkness before dinnertime. The lack of sunlight and the cold temperatures sends them spiraling into despair, counting the days until the clocks are set back giving them more time for their idol, the sun, to shine down upon them again until late in the warm summer evenings.
