Spring isn’t helping me

Thank you all for this site.
I don't want to keep going on.
I'm just hanging on a thread these days.

I've always found that spring exacerbates low mood. Something to do with all the mating/nesting and new life emerging, and things growing - it's a reminder of the life/death cycle I think.

I'm sorry that you're suffering so much, and that spring isn't helping.

Studies have found that winter is the time when depression rates go up, but they don't explain why. It could be related to the body's ability to synthesise Vitamin D when exposed to sunlight. I guess this may be applicable only for those suffering from seasonal mood issues and not from serious depression.

I've long believed that I have 'reverse SAD', Spring and Summer tend to make me feel worse. Suicide rates are highest in April and May apparently so I'm not alone. All that light, long ass days, uncomfortable heat and above all people seeming to have fun together outside is not something I ever look forward to. And yeah just the irrepressible burgeoning of new life and growth painfully contrasting with the frozen wasteland within.

To everyone whose mental state is the worst in springtime, I'll just say same here. It's quite true that suicides peak in spring, The poet T. S. Eliot called April the cruelest month.

+1 on Spring/Summer being a downer for me. Have always been a night owl and hate the extended daylight and the sweltering heat that is soon to come.

I feel worse when the weather is warmer, I find it to be very depressing. I prefer the colder weather. Nothing ever makes me feel better and I also do not want to go on, I just want to be free from this awful life. I'm sorry that you are suffering. I wish you the best.
