Depressing UK ?

Is that what these scientists are tying to say, that our weather causes us to be depressed? If that's true, how do countries with 6 months of darkness cope? Or is that easier for the human mind?

As someone who loves the bright sunshine (although not the sweltering heat) I love this idea. I'm well aware I'm more "on form" with ideas at work during the summer months. Perhaps everyone has a mild form of SAD, and we call it "hibernation" in animals?

It's totally natural and I agree with you. Becky says it's called the circadian rhythm, but then she would know: she's a scientist ;)

You can get neg ions from running water, so a pond/fountain jobby in the back yard is a good help... as for the daylight bit... I recommend a 10-3 working day from October to March ;)
