Whomever is responsible for this daylight savings or negative daylight savings, or whatever it is called needs to be forced to move to Alaska during the time in which they have no sun. Or locked inside an underground dwelling with no windows. Reversing time so that we get screwed out of hours of sunlight is the worst idea since the Edsel and probably worse than that.
Officially I don't have SAD, but I may as well since the onset of the reversal of daylight savings brings about a deep feeling of suffocation and doom. The weeks and months leading up to it evoke hints of dread, but the day it finally snaps into effect is the worst. My brain locks, full stop, at the idea of it being dark at four thirty in the afternoon. I drove the entire way home thinking 'I'm not going to make it, I'm not going to make it, I'm not going to make it' over and over again. Whatever depressive strains were floating around in my head increased exponentially.
So much for the holdover dose of Adderall (10mg, instant release). I may as well have taken a sugar pill. Will now attempt self medication by ingesting tryptophan by way of several Almond Hershey bars and watching my dog wrestle his stuffed snake to death.
