Keep your head up, dude... I also suffer from this unfortunate affliction, and the days getting shorter definitely doesn't help. I just try to buckle down and get through each day until December 21st, and then count down the days until Daylight Savings again. It helps a little, although these days my head just seems like it's swimming with existential dread. I like to think there's some nobility in carrying on with the struggle, but some days it doesn't feel worth it. Those are the days I'm extra careful to check in with folks. Keep on keepin' on...

Thanks, man. Yeah existential dread sounds about right. I envy my dogs sometimes, so blissfully ignorant and so easily amused!

Hang in there as well!

That was amazing, you are so talented.

I’ve been feeling the same way but I don’t have your ability to express myself. I envy you.
