Not much to be sick about since it cannot be changed. It is very cold around my area of Iowa today but it is nothing I worry with or stress about.

Weather has a profound affect on some people (like me). I know I can't change it, but it makes me very unhappy when it is cold and snowy.

As soon as the house sells, I'm OUT!

And the hot weather down here in Ga. has a depressing but converse effect on me, Elle. It's an each to their own thing I guess which is just fine.
But, I truly dread the onset of the unrelenting summer heat down here. On the few really warm days we've had so far this spring, I have felt my unease & irritability factors rise noticeably. You could say that I'm in the wrong section of the U.S. LOL!
You have no idea how much I long to return (because of a multitude of factors) to my home state of Iowa after 35 years away that has come to resemble an exile down here in this dreadful hotbed of insane ideas!

I hear you. I live in Alabama and the weather down here is just awful. There are three seasons - blazing hot, hot, and a couple months of cooling off.

Give me four distinct seasons please.

I'm done with seasons, I want the hot, hotter, and hottest that you have!

I get seriously depressed in the fall. I hate the season because I know winter is next. Then I am miserable all winter long (or half the spring too, like this year). This move is a long time coming

Hi there Fezz..
I've seen you in other threads & note that we match up here on the weather thingy w/ heat.
Elle
I wonder if any of your problem with winter has an origin in the lack of sunlight during those months? I think that the name given for people who are aflicted badly in the short day light winter season is SAD, or something like that , as in seasonally adjusted disorder.
If so, no matter where you live, you could still have symptoms when the days grow short. Had you thought of that possible factor?
