Psychologists warn people with a less pleasant life. In the coming days, the chance of an autumn depression is around 58 percent.
In the coming days the weather will change and we will end up in a period of wet and bleak autumn weather. For many people, this means the start of a new depression. Psychologist Jeanette Komst fears that there is now every reason for a big autumn dip. “The days are getting shorter and soon it will still be dark when the alarm goes off. As a result, you start the umpteenth bad day in your already rather hopeless life with a gloomy feeling. Then you have to cycle through the biting cold to your very boring workplace, where you are surrounded by other depressed people all day,” the psychologist explains.
According to Komst, the environment also plays a role. “When you come home after a day of stupid work, you find a partner on the couch who hasn’t done anything all day. Then you still have to do all kinds of tedious chores in the evening. Once you’re done, there’s hardly time to down a bottle of booze so you can at least get some sleep in an ice-cold bed. And the next day all the misery starts again.”
“Fortunately, there is something you can do to combat autumn depression,” the psychologist continues. “But I don’t feel like explaining all that now. Leave me alone.”
