4. they're no different than any other type of medication

taken for other types of health conditions, they are tools to help.

do what you can to take care of yourself, get yourself into the sunshine or, as neoma suggested, get a sun lamp. winters can be harder with the shorter days. i am a big fan of a bubble bath with a book when i'm feeling down, or the occasional dinner of ice cream or popcorn.

try to get something done every day, finish the laundry or empty the dishwasher. try to get out of the house, even if it's just to read in a coffee shop for an hour.

i am sorry to hear you're feeling badly, remember to be kind to yourself and that we are here to listen.
