Does the slightest bit of cold weather make anyone else go bi-polar? I go from the summertime blahs without the ability to hold a thought in my head to fall/winter-ish head screams (although I admit the coffee and alcohol don't help - but oh the cocktail recipes I've found recently!).

Eh, it's more mental than emotional. Truth be told, I could stand a good emotional wallow, even if it's brought on by depression - it's like a warm blanket in a way and I've developed some coping mechanisms (i.e. daydreams). I don't have much faith in antidepressants, at least as far as their value in ameliorating my own depression - one weekend way back when after my first love broke up with me, I wound up staying a couple nights at the hospital; the hotlines all said that "if you need help you should go to the hospital" but seeing the doctors put all the emphasis of treatment on little cups of pills when the my problem was a lack of human warmth in my life (not to mention veins literally on fire because fight-or-flight had kicked into overdrive and wouldn't shut off for days if not weeks), well.. One insight I did pick up from that, though, is "when you hit rock bottom, all there is is Up," so..
