[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Of course cold weather doesn't make everyone sad, but it absolutely can have an effect on mood. Long hours indoors, lack of sunshine, overcast days -- for some people this does wear them down and even cause depression. My DC is one of those people and so weather is absolutely something we are taking into account. Not true for everyone, of course, but college is a time when many young people deal with depression for the first time so it is something to keep in mind if you think your DC might be vulnerable.[/quote] I love winter. I also skied in college so was outside a lot anyway. Maybe there is self selection but both my college and grad school were in wintery places and they both seemed to attract winter sports enthusiasts so not too many people cooped up indoors.[/quote] +1 I'm from Mass, went to college in Maine. Cold weather invigorates me. Hot weather depresses me and makes me feel lethargic. I dread summer every year, and think I have the opposite of SAD. Everyone is different.[/quote] +2 This sounds exactly like me!! I start getting depressed around March because I know the hot weather is right around the corner. I thought I was alone in feeling this way. Give me a good cold day anytime! [/quote] + my DD. Her college list is 100% cold weather schools for this exact reason. Doesn't hurt that there seem to be much better choices for her in NE than in FL. I chose my grad school, UMiami, for the nice weather, and I'd probably put more thought into it if I could do it again. Pero I did learn Spanish![/quote]
