Indian Summer Affective Disorder.

We've just finished up this Fall's Indian Summer, and not a moment too soon. I don't know what it is about the warmer, wetter weather in October but it depresses the fuck out of me. I was down, feeling quesy most of the week. Was mostly useless at work. I barely rallied for fencing but then was bad enough to miss a day of work (OK, was slightly ill to boot). It effected my 'date' (where it seems predetermined by the other person that she wasn't going to have time for this, so much for that).

Today the front broke with a lot of rain this morning and a big downpour in the afternoon. After that it was cool with lots of wind. I felt better.

I don't know what it is, the dank, the 'heat', or what. But oddly enough having the blog let me see that a heatwave (much worse than this one, actually) in October of last year had me down pretty far as well. Makes me wonder if this has happened before that as well. Hmmmm, blogging for mental health patterns.
