    My low moods are definitely worse in the winter.

    I am finding getting out for a good hour walking is helping. Regardless of the weather, it is the light and air that I find I need. Plus the exercise

    Get outside. Festering under the duvet is no good for you whatever the season. Some good advice on going for a walk.

    I take vitamin D from September onwards, it definitely helps stop me hibernating.

    I've been waking up at 4:30 every morning for the last few days, a sure sign that the amount of daylight has changed significantly....
