hey folks! now it's starting to get warm i wanna mention Summertime Seasonal Affective Disorder.

it's way less common than Wintertime SAD, but this also means that there's less knowledge about it! it also means that it is a very isolating condition to have, when people around you are talking about how 'nice' it is outside.

my personal experience includes:

increased brain fog

insomnia

disassociation

irritation

lethargy

depression, suicidal feelings

loneliness

this is not getting into my interactions with non-SSAD folks. these have varied from chill and cool to very the opposite.

You ever feel like you're just a pawn in a video game that someone else is playing and you don't have any autonomy over yourself whatsoever? Same !

It kinda sucks ass when people talk about your favorite season like it's objectively the worst one and if you enjoy that season you're weird. Like sorry bro your experience isn't universal. Your hell is someone else's heaven
