Even though it’s still early winter, a dear friend of mine has already started complaining about having “the Augusts”.
It’s her not-quite-calendar-accurate term for the winter blues.
She blames them on the short days and eagerly anticipates the return of daylight saving. Many people are likely to feel similarly, but research shows the mood shift might have less to do with low light and more to do with our winter social lives and activity levels.
If your mood drops during the colder months of the year, there are things you can do to help yourself stay buoyant, according to Professor Greg Murray, head of Psychological Sciences and Statistics at Melbourne’s Swinburne University of Technology.
