The return of green grass is nice, but I’d prefer more daylight. We need the seasonal rains, and snow in the mountains … I get it … but damn.

Having spring/summer onset #seasonaldepression is so strange like what do you mean I'm happiest when all the plants start to die but when my house plants die I fuggin lose it

The clocks fell back this weekend & I’m facing a winter of fighting my seasonal depression. Today was easy- I live by a sparkly sea that lifts my spirits & she was at her glittery best. Only 4 (long) months until we are on the better side of this…

I feel this creeping in. Also...after I wrote it, I discovered an eerily similar #EmilyDickinson poem. I was both tickled by it, creeped out, and also a little sad that maybe I'm not as original as I thought. 😂😅😭

Will post the Dickinson poem in the comments.

a crack -
time seeps through,

the hollow hour forgotten
until the dark falls

so early,
so softly,
yet jarring

I have never understood how people in genuinely cold climates deal with real winters. I grew up in the deep south, and then moved to the deep south of SoCal. I think snow is beautiful, love to “visit” winter, but I think living in it would kill me.

New sertraline poem 🩷 I am so grateful for this medication, despite the bit of side effects I experience

Turn off the TV, stop your scroll, and go outside to enjoy some make-believe goblins instead of the real ones on the news channel.

And have a Snickers. You’re not you when you’re hangry.

my mind far away
as a leaf on the strong wind
in another place,

falling and hoping for ground
to stay me, saved from #abyss

When productivity dips with the temperature, it’s not always burnout, it might be seasonal depression. #seasonaldepression https://youtu.be/TDw8yHFLCi0?si=gemD_26xJQfOY7_f
