winter doldrums

Manifesting as low energy and hopelessness over ever finding "someone."    I have tried jdate, match.com, harmony.com (I KNOW), and chemistry.com.   I have not yet gotten to, as a friend just delicately put it, "that site for older people."  Plenty of fish, I think.

Appropriate icon is appropriate.

As Rhi pointed out last night, my D levels are probably low.   Which, as I absorb it very poorly from food or supplements, means I need more sun, except, WINTER.

May look up a tanning salon for the weekend.

Sorry to hear about the doldrums. I have learned that I need to deal with SAD proactively, especially after moving here to the frozen north. Do you have a window where you work, or a large one at home you can sit next to? That and insisting I stick to regular exercise has been getting me through winters without too much irrationality.

Actually, what helped Mom and me a lot was the solatube we installed over the dining room table. It brought natural light directly into a place where we are a lot.

I totally rec getting a Philips GoLite, which has been worth the money for me. ((Hugs))

(I know, virtual sunbeams don't actually help with vitamin D levels, but...)
