Anyone else out there get SAD in the summer. I am in pure misery from Memorial to Labor day. Unfortunately, it seems to be most people's favorite time of year and I get accused of isolating when I don't want to be tortured in the outdoors. I am in physical pain when it gets above 85, my stomach cramps up painfully, all my serenity is fried of me. I miss myself. If anyone else can relate to this, please let me know. Also, I would appreciate it if nobody would try to tell me that SAD only happens in the winter because of sunlight. Look it up in the DSM IV or on the internet if you don't believe me.
I just want to curl up in an air conditioned hole until September's here.
