battling seasonal depression or a bad case of the winter blues?

HOW ARE YOU? I mean, really?

And, don't you dare answer 'fine', if that's not the truth.

Cause, I'll be honest with ya ... the seasonal affective disorder has been very very real over here.

I have a history of depression but it’s been well-managed for a while now. Even so, when the temps drop and the days get shorter/darker, sometimes my SAD doldrums hit me with a vengeance:

Lethargy. Moodiness. Withdrawal. Lack of focus. Weight gain.

And, this winter 2023/2024 was/is definitely one of those years for me ... so, I'm just checking in:
