because I'm depressed ?

Which is it with you, if either , or is it just 'winter' doing both?

I think the nights drawing in are making me want to hibernate and it's getting harder to get up in the mornings..........lol

Can't say I feel " depressed " ( I go in more vague melancholy ) .

Hope you feel a bit more chipper soon Rose : )) xx

I'm never sure which comes first: the depression or the tiredness. But, I blame it all on the shorter days. Thank God we don't live in Finland.

I think everyone's tired this week. Or sniffly and infected. Or both. Hope you soon see something that pushes your pecker back up:)

I am sorry to sound so happy on this thread but I have been tired for the last week but it feels like forever, and I can really empathise with how you feel. Everything has been a struggle and juggling work with hossie for a very sick relie, but after a heart op they came home last night and today I was awake at 6.30 and raring to go - I still am its like a huge cloud has lifted and spring is in the air :)

Whatever is dragging you down will pass and the feeling of energy will knock you for six :)

pathetic ~~~~ to all lol

lol Uggers , that expression did at least make for a grin, albeit a rather rueful one :)

I think I may be sliding into pre- Christmas doldrums , which others get but isn't like me at all. I usually love all the glitzy stuff in the shops, and the carols, even Slade's 'Merry Christmas Everybody' played umpteen times in every shop.
But this year I can't get the 'spark', it's like someone blew out all the candles.................

and on that note I am going to go and pull myself together and make coffee before I depress everyone!

It's all proportion Rose, isn't it - our bad days are bad to us even if they're good or terrible to someone else. I see some people whingeing on here and think ffs pull yourself together but that's usually only when I don't like them. Go and put a picture of yourself on FB, that will brighten up my evening:)

Uggers.....I like your expression " always get a bit funny in Autumn " it made me grin as I am the same.........in the Autumn I become " distant " ( if that makes sense )...........lol

Have a good grizzle Rose.........it might make you feel better : )) xx
