I'm
fine
during
the
day
.
I
can
have
a
fantastic
day
and
be
in
a
great
mood
,
but
then
the
sun
sets
and
my
mood
plummets.
No
amount
of
meds
can
fix
it
and
coping mechanisms
aren't
reliable
.
Gods
I
wish
my
brain
would
just
function
properly
for
once
.
At
least
I
can
look
forward
to
the
daytime
when
the
dark
is
gone
and
things
are
better
.
My
depressive
rantings
always
seem
so
pathetic
and
whiny
the
moment
my
mood
is
back
on
track
.
I
sound
like
an
adolescent.
Unfortunately
,
that's
reality

To
be
honest
,
I
thought
this
was
going
to
be
about
someone
with
developing
Alzheimer's
...
I'm
curious
if
the
feelings
you're
experiencing
are
affected
in
any
way
by
the
presence
or
absence
of
artificial
light
vs
.
natural
light
.
Like
an
overproduction
of
melatonin
or
something

I've
been
told
to
try
getting
a
sun
lamp
,
especially
with
winter
approaching
,
but
the
good
ones
are
really
out
of
my
price
range.
I
know
my
vitamin
d
levels
are
low
,
but
I
do
take
a
supplement
for
that
,
so
that
should
be
improving
next
time
i
have
blood
drawn
.
It
really
doesn't
matter
much
on
what
I
do
though
.
The
sun
sets
and
my
mood
plummets
almost
every
single
day
.
I
feel
badly
for
my
family
who
have
to
watch
it
,
and
I
try
to
hide
it
,
but
they
know
.
