With it came sadness like I had never experienced. Mornings became hard to wake up to and days felt slow. Most times away from my room, I would have to fight the tingling sensation of tears building up. The worst part of the experience was not knowing why I had lost my happiness. Then December came around and I got to go home to warm and sunny weather. Within 2 weeks I was back to my optimistic self.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Shrugging it off, I told myself that it must have been homesickness I was struggling with. So I didn\u2019t expect a second round of the sad bug. It was only by my third winter did I start to see a pattern. I was reliant on the sun!! I needed what the sun provided, and I had gone roughly 2 years not understanding that. With more research, I soon found that my symptoms all matched the \u201cwinter blues\u201d or \u201cseasonal affective disorder\u201d (SAD).<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Fighting SAD <\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-3092\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.lboro.ac.uk\/students\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2018\/04\/Plane-1024x576.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"900\" height=\"506\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.lboro.ac.uk\/students\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2018\/04\/Plane.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.lboro.ac.uk\/students\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2018\/04\/Plane-300x169.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/blog.lboro.ac.uk\/students\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2018\/04\/Plane-768x432.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/blog.lboro.ac.uk\/students\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2018\/04\/Plane-370x208.jpeg 370w, https:\/\/blog.lboro.ac.uk\/students\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2018\/04\/Plane-770x433.jpeg 770w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">There were many things I started to do once I was almost certain what I was going through. Keep in mind though I have never had a formal diagnosis. Based on what I believe I was experiencing I \u2026<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u2026took trips to places where the sun was bright and bold. This meant going home in December for me. It\u2019s amazing how 3 weeks of sun recharges your batteries and can last you through the rest of the grey skies to come when you\u2019re back.\u00a0\u00a0Sometimes home was too far away, so I\u2019d run away to places like Greece or Spain.<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u2026tried to have a positive mindset. Having positive internal dialogue really makes all the difference in situations. And always remember, the sunny days are COMING, and they are worth it. They really accentuate how beautiful this country is.<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u2026looked for help. Talking to family about what I was feeling really helped take a weight of sadness off my chest during particularly hard days. But sometimes, for some, it can be hard to open up to those closest to you and you would prefer to seek more professional help. Loughborough University has many services to assist you in mentally and emotionally hard times. I have never felt optionless here, and I will list a few options below.\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\">There is a student-led association called \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.lsu.co.uk\/getinvolved\/welfare\/campaigns\/headsup\/\">Heads Up!<\/a>\u201d and they promote positive mental health care through different events, workshops and campaigns.<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\">There is also a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.lboro.ac.uk\/services\/cds\/contact-us\/\">counselling service<\/a> where you will be able to go talk to a professionally trained individual about your feelings and concerns. For this service, you even have the option of meeting someone face-to-face or on a secure online platform.<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\">If you hold a faith or you are spiritual and would prefer to find comfort in your faith, there is also the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.lboro.ac.uk\/services\/cfs\/\">Centre for Faith and Spirituality<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-3093 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.lboro.ac.uk\/students\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2018\/04\/Sun-photo-169x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"169\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.lboro.ac.uk\/students\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2018\/04\/Sun-photo-169x300.jpg 169w, https:\/\/blog.lboro.ac.uk\/students\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2018\/04\/Sun-photo-578x1024.jpg 578w, https:\/\/blog.lboro.ac.uk\/students\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2018\/04\/Sun-photo-370x655.jpg 370w, https:\/\/blog.lboro.ac.uk\/students\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2018\/04\/Sun-photo.jpg 610w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 169px) 100vw, 169px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Closing remarks<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>If you follow my <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.lboro.ac.uk\/students\/business-economics\/surviving-beast-east\/\">blog posts<\/a> so far you must be thinking \u201cwhat is her obsession with the weather!!\u201d.
