BuzzFeeders let us know how they beat the lowest of winter blues.
I've made a pact with myself to try not to hate winter so much. I go for walks as often as possible and I try to enjoy the wintry Manhattan things that are not available year round. I also do a lot of reading and writing because with the power of words, one can escape to any time of year.
This is the worst winter for me as I moved from the U.S. to the U.K. to marry my husband. So happy and a great time in my life. But with my tendency towards the blues it has been a difficult transition. I also don't have a job and feel worthless and directionless. Making a to-do list and completing the tasks (though it takes a lot of resolve to get started on it) really helps and so does taking a vitamin B complex, vitamin D, and folic acid. I try to get as much sun as I can but it's hard here in London. I may try one of the light boxes I read about here!
