Anyone else not enjoy the season change to Spring?

[Soniastrumpet1984]

I know this is an unusual one but I get seasonal affective disorder for spring not autumn.
In my neck of the woods, there are little signs of spring coming, and it makes me feel very low. Once it's here I get used to it and like it, and I enjoy summer but its the change that upsets me. Anyone else?

No it's not connected to anything like having to do stuff or being too hot etc . The closest match is when a pp said its a sense of existential dread . That's exactly it

No not me . Also a totally different thing than I was saying!

I think a pp may be correct in the fact it may be the depletion of your vit D levels from the lack of daylight throughout the winter, I had never thought of it this way but it makes perfect sense.
I'm the opposite I love spring, I love seeing things coming back to life and I literally countdown to summer for proper daylight.
That said I hate 21st June as it's downhill from there whereas the 21st December it is on the up

I would live in permanent Winter if I could.

Any change of season gives me a funny feeling a can't describe! It's not sadness though. Maybe anxiety and fear of change?

Last year it was at the end of August, it totally threw me with how early it was and I thought my 'senses' were off but they weren't. Even the late summer we got in September wasn't the same, it had an Autumn "feel'. But I can't describe it to people without feeling like I sound a bit nutty!

I love feeling the seasons change though!

Same, find it a sad season. Autumn is my favourite.

I get it.

Used to HATE spring but made peace with it through having my own garden but still find it difficult .

For me it's everything gets very busy - school pressure, spring clean, new season clothes, tons of birthdays, Easter, holidays etc in a barrage of never ending tasks.
Plus weathers is so unpredictable. If it's sunny it's freezing if it's dry it's grey, if it's warm it's wet.

I relax about May when everything calms down and we get reliably good weather, lots of light and you can put on a T shirt and sandals without needing tons of layers and or waterproofs.

No I love it. The lengthening days, the first snowdrop and new born lambs.

Whereabouts do you live to have had no snow at all?

I don't find spring sad personally, but on a previous occasion of hearing someone dislike spring, I found this poem which I really enjoyed:

Thank you for posting as I’ve been finding the transition difficult.
But I also find summer very difficult. I have never been able to describe what it is - the pressure that everyone else starts to feel better with the light and I feel the same or even worse?? I do genuinely like spring for its flowers and blossom but the warming weather and change in light I’m finding hard and feel more anxious.

I don't like the summer months much and have to opposite to those who love it warm or really hot. Much prefer autumn / winter

I think I know what you mean. I am usually at my lowest about mid February - I suspect it is because that’s about as much of the winter and dark I can take.

I also find the Spring term the hardest. The Autumn term starts off warm and ends with Christmas. The summer term is quite short and, after the exams, has a load of fun stuff like sports day. The Spring term starts in the dark slump after Christmas, takes in Lent and ends before Easter.

I love it and don’t love it at the same time. I love when winter is on its way out, but Spring always stirs up some sad feelings for me. Same with September when Autumn starts to appear. It’s all to do with events that have happened in those months in the past.
