It's hitting again.....the dreaded "Seasonal Depression" syndrome! This time of the year, it's nothing but rain, overcast, cloudy, gray......JUST DREARY!!!

Thank goodness of the time change. I am not getting up in the dark anymore and it's been sunny and beautiful vivd blue skies for at least 2 days straight! It's still cold, but I am so happy to see the sun!!
I found some interesting information regarding "Vitamin D" deprivation. Research is finding that most African-American people living in areas where there isn't alot of sun, suffer "Seasonal Depression" more than others. Because of our darker skin, that acts as a natural "sun" blocker and in areas with little sun, it leave us without the vitamin D we need.
I want to follow up more on this, as I find it interesting that most afro-americans may lack Vitamin D.
