Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

I feel for you. Although I never got an actual diagnosis, I am fairly sure I have traditional SAD. It doesn't make a lot of sense, because I handle cooler temps better than warm ones, but I guess it's a sunlight exposure thing.
I knew someone who claimed that light therapy helped. I don't know much about it, in your case it might be worth a short. Some people talked about melatonin, but I don't think it helps that much if at all (but that's just based my own experience).
In any cases, I hope this winter won't be too hard on you this year.
Thank you. I bought a light therapy lamp years ago. I will have to find it.
