Anyone else hate the “ber” months?

[Chiavennasca]

September 1st tomorrow. I bloody hate the “ber” months. Clocks move. Cold and dark. Halloween, bonfire night & Xmas shoved down our throats at every turn.

I hate pumpkin flavoured stuff, I hate fireworks, I hate the word “autumnal.” I don’t want to get cosy with blankets and eat soup and light candles. I want to sit outside in the sun and eat salads and wear suncream.

I’m extra bitter this year because my mum died in June. Wake me up in 2026.

This post is just a rant hahaha, anyone else? Or am I alone in my end-of-year hatred?

No, I’m with you. The ‘ber’ months can get in the bin.

Yea, I don’t mind it being cooler but the long hours of darkness can do one, I like 18 hours of daylight. Although I don’t like suncream and I do like Christmas. January is the worst. Hmmm. I’m sorry about your mum

I’m with you!

Surely there’s no more misery of a month than February? . Still cold as fuck and absolutely nothing to get excited for

I’m sorry for your loss.

I don’t mind autumn as such but I don’t care for people who make it their entire personality and bang on about how great it is.

I’m no sun worshipper but I prefer warm, light evenings and mornings and hate the dark days leading up to Christmas

I don't mind September but I dread the other
bers 😫

I’m right there with you OP.

Sorry to hear about your Mum 🌹

Yep. The ‘bee’ months herald in the winter. My SAD starts end of September so that’s always fun to look forward to

Me too. Pumpkin Spice Lattes can also piss off.

Fe-ber-uary

If not spelt, said

September is ok, still more warm and sunny days that cold ones, but I don’t like the rest of them. Cold, rainy and miserable.

im a summer girl.

Snap.

September tolerable the rest I hate. Roll on March.

Yes agree entirely. Dreadful. Absolutely hate the weather changing. Hate the dark mornings and afternoons. So depressing. I don't want to be cosy. I hate the clothes too. I absolutely loathe Christmas and the build up to it. I can't wait till January and it's all over and the days slowly start to get longer

Nope, they’re all my fave months. I have SAD but for the summer months

Yes. And the ones after Xmas up until June. Bleurgh. All of them.

I know I’m a minority but I love autumn. No more sitting outside to eat, feeling sticky from sun cream, hoodies and leggings are back and my coffees are hot again without making me sweat!

Don't mind February as it's relatively short, the days are getting longer and you know spring is around the corner.

Yes, I suffer terribly from SAD and I'm dreading them.

Nope, this is my favourite time of year by a country mile! Bring on the boots, bonfires, candles, Halloween, Christmas… I love it all, unapologetically!

May is my favourite month by far

I'm really struggling as the days are closing in.
i love long light days.
I love the light and colour of the early autumn but this year my mood seems to have taken a nosedive as the days have started to shorten

Yes, hate them because the long winter is stretching in front. I am 100% a spring and summer person.
I don't mind Jan and Feb as much because in my mind it's on the way towards Spring. We usually go away in Feb half term instead of summer, so I have the sun to look forward to. Otherwise it's just damp and grim.

I feel you... My Mum died in April ⚘️

me too. Feel like the world is the right way up during autumn and winter. I dread summers.

That's a short month right at the end of the misery though, you have spring to look forward to the following month.
