Daylight Savings Should Be Canceled To Decrease Seasonal Depression
I am among the tens of millions of Americans who suffer from Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD). I used to live in a state that s mostly sunshine, so whenever the darker colder season hit, my depression wasn t worsened for very long. And while I love it here, now that I m in Idaho I m finding it more difficult to get out of this funk, for lack of a better word. The cold temperatures and dark skies have sent me into a bit of a spiral. I hate it.
Finally there is a light at the end of the tunnel as warmer temperatures and sunnier skies seem on the horizon. I like to trust the weather app on my phone. Boise should be sunny and 46 degrees come Monday. Quite the welcome respite from the deep chill and snow we ve been experiencing. But just in time to ruin everything is Daylight Savings Time.
