It's late Spring where I live (Wellington, New Zealand) and the weather's been gorgeous for the last couple of days- But I feel drained, and occasionally anxious, and I don't have a lot of energy. I don't feel soul-crushingly awful, like I do during the depths of winter, and I'm not sure I'd even say I'm depressed -more apathetic than anything- but I also don't really have much enthusiasm for anything, even things I normally love. This is not like me, at all, I hate feeling tired all the time and I would love to return to my normal, overly-excitable self.

This has been going on for a couple of weeks and for the last few years, I've experienced pretty much the same thing at the start of every spring- Fine for a week or so, then this for a month or more. It always goes away once summer's properly underway, and it almost feels like after experiencing SAD all winter (Wellington's weather can get pretty bleak), my brain OD's on sunlight and can't cope. Does anyone else experience this? How do you deal with it?

Big hugs to everyone in the northern hemisphere, currently entering the gloomy part of the year.
