Does anyone experience depression during summer? It's nearing the season's end here, but for the first time I am feeling stranded for no particular reason and I believe it's due to the summer.
Sob, it's hot, wah it's bright but it really fucks with me. I just got done reading through a big book that took me months, and I jumped right into another one that I am loving but can't seem to get myself to read these past few days because the light seems inescapable and it's only dark for 3-4 hours. Anyone else experience a similar discomfort with reading during this time of the season?

congratulations you've found a way to complain about having too much light to read.

My depression sets in in early July and doesn't relent until spring. Spring is a time of mania and beauty for me, the rest of the year is a write off where I attempt not to end in jail or homeless from outbursts of violence and general listlessness. This spring was particularly amazing and so the summer has been correspondingly very hard, and I have done some very bad things, but I think I am leveling out to a kind of more apathetic depression, which is a relief.

Kek, what are you, gay? A true intellectual (like myself) is depressed all year 'round.
A sorrow which does not stop for swirling snow or scorching sun, like a postman.
Ah, what a burden to bear! WOE IS ME.

It's too much light for too long for everything!

I'm always sad about something, but rarely sent into this kind of listlessness.
People wear depression like purple hearts or something, but I've always thought that unless you have a genetic disposition to severe depression that most people have the capacity to experience sadness at a really intense and opressive level, or depressed, even if they aren't currently or have yet to experience it. I don't know whether proudly-sad people are truly on a level I do not know, or just romantics about their sadness.

I don't normally get Seasonal Affective disorder, but I did when I lived in Florida for a year because I was really missing two seasons.

>or just romantics about their sadness.
i dont know about other people, but the more i read the more nostalgic and melancholic i get
every ended book is like digging a hole deeper in my heart, something dies.
