SAD In Reverse...

First of all, let me preface this post with my sincere compassion for those of you dxd with fall and wintertime SAD...I watched my mum suffer with this as soon as the clocks fell back every year...

A couple of years ago though my pyschiatrist dxd me with "SAD In Reverse", as for me, as soon as the clocks go forward *I* fall back...

I just can't bear the longer sunnier days, and now...this heat!

Most of my hospitalisation have been in the spring and summer, and just as recently as last month I had to have another admission.

Anyway, just wondering if any of you struggle more during the spring and summer...

I don't talk about this to too many people as most people can't understand why I am much more at ease when it is overcast and rainy, and how depressed I get during the seasons when people brightly say,"What a beautiful day!"

Well, perhaps all of you as well will think me quite the freak, so taking a risk here I guess.

I know this is not in the DSM V, but my pyschiatrist is not dismissive of the reality that I "Always have a hard time in the spring and summer."

I guess hence, my screen name here...Autumn to me is beautiful and I feel much better once the clocks " Fall Back"...

So...anyone else struggle in the spring and summer?
