Questions from the video: * Do you live somewhere that gets a true winter (with snow and darkness and such)? * Do you struggle with SAD (seasonal affective disorder)? If yes, how do you deal with it? * Do you have any strategies to share for combating SAD? * What's your Scattergories answer?
I still struggle with and all we get is some overcasted days we live in the tropics and it is never below 65 to 85 so no cold and snow we used to live such a place and it was horrible I could barely get out of bed
The winters where I live have gotten less cold and less snow. I have light SAD. I check in with friends and exercise and plan future vacations. My answer is jogging 🏃♀️.
Iceland has such dark and long winters (they start in October or November) that most people here are vitamin D deficient. I’m vitamin D deficient and need to take two pills in the mornings for it 😅 I think I struggle with SAD but I’ve never been diagnosed. I definitely have a much harder time mentally during the winter and even spring since it’s not really spring here. I recommend (if it’s related to winter and dull/dark days) to turn on lamps and decorative lights (preferably warm lights) and taking it slow. Hot chocolate or coffee can help too! And try to romanticise these times as if they’re a heartwarming movie! My scattegories answer is journaling and jamming! Put some music on and journal! ❤
1. Yes. As a matter of fact two years ago we had a famous blizzard that shut everything down for like almost two weeks. O-o 2. I don't think I do, but I do miss certain parts of holidays that used to be exciting that aren't anymore due to being an adult. 3. Music. Music helps me a lot. 4. Jogging. I don't run as much as I should but Jogging feels like the right answer here.
Winter here can go either way. Definitely gets dark early. I haven’t struggled with SAD…always attribute it to being a winter baby. Scattergories: jigsaw puzzles! Especially the little sets you can get around the holidays that have like 25 small puzzles (one a day). Something fun, usually cute and that little feeling of accomplishing something 😊
This mini series of fall bucket list was fun to watch! You did awesome 🍂🍁🎃. I live in Pennsylvania, and unfortunately, our winters have been getting warmer and warmer. I miss all the snow, and I am excited to see some in the game each year. I do get tired of the snow by the time it's ready to end in game, but it just makes the spring better for me.
Hi Robin, hope you’re doing well. I’m doing okay. Your island looks nice. 🙂❤️ Sorry, I couldn’t think of a word that starts with the letter “ J” . Winter here is in between weather and it gets dark early. No I don’t struggle with SAD. I Just try to take one day at a time. I play games to keep my mind from worrying about RL things, Read, look at RUclips videos & TV shows and spend time with family. Hope you have a good day and weekend. Take care ❤️🙂
Halloween Harmony looks awesome! We get too much winter here - the snow can be beautiful but the skies are too often dreary and the darkness is too prevalent. I've struggled with SAD since I was a teen. I do the things you mentioned - a light that simulates sunlight, and making an effort to get outdoors. I also put more emphasis on exercise (so my scattergories answer could be Jumping Jacks if I didn't have arthritic knees) and make sure I'm taking a vitamin D supplement.
Your videos mean so much to me right now, thank you. SAD usually gets to me around January, February. I find that it helps to surround myself with things that remind me of seasons that make me happier, but obviously this is an easier said than done sort of thing.
Jogging. My name starts with J. I live in Canada but our winters have been weird lately. Warmer than usual until like February and then it gets really cold. Spending time with my kids, playing AC and reading help me when I’m feeling down
Love your island - love following you - you are one of my favorite creators - also, absolutely LOVE your apple orchard and have "stolen " your idea (thank you) but where do you get those ladders and what are they actually called Love you (& Bill, of course)
They are called stepladders. You can get them in the Nook’s Cranny or hhp. I got mine colored red by Cyrus, because I thought it really accentuated the apples. Thank you so much for your kind words! ❤️😊
1. Yes, I do, on average, where I live over 100 in of snow for the season 2. Yes I do. What I usually do play animal crossing online with friends 3. Me I usually just play video games online with friends 4. Join a fun group

I just found out about these last year and was hoping to try it this year. Thanks for the reminder!

Love the island, great video! I liked the maze, I love building mazes using different items! 💜💜💜

Love it!

We don’t really get that much of a winter so I get a bit sad if it’s way too warm and I don’t get to enjoy the cold and the winter 😂
