Does anyone know how to get over the holiday blues?

It is quite common to feel depressed this time of year. However, this depression is not caused by the holiday blues, but by fewer hours of daylight. When the sun sets earlier, some people's brains get fooled into thinking it is night time and produce chemicals that cause them to have less energy. This is known as seasonal effective disorder. The days will start to get longer after Christmas, and your symptoms should go away around the end of February or the beginning of March. If you don't want to wait that long, you can call your doctor and see if he/she thinks you need antidepressants.
