Great, we could sleep one hour more, but suddenly, it’s getting dark at 18.
Great we have one hour more of sun on the morning, but instead of being pitch black when starting to commute to work it’s just still dark and by the end of November it’ll be pitch black anyway.
No, literally zero other people hate wintertime.
Some people.love taking things literally despite obvious context though.
Winter time is standard time with the sun at the highest being noon. If we all want more sun in the evening then we should shave an hour off the workday and stop whining that the sun comes up earlier in the summer.
I actually like it mostly, but fall and late summer are my favorite seasons.
It sounds like you may have seasonal depression, lots of folks do, including one of my siblings. Have you checked out the special lamps they have? They mimic the suns light, Idk about the research, but I know a lot of people who’ve said they help.
It’s not just the season, but the idea of having to change all the clocks and do our life on hour earlier/later/whatever, so now when we leave work it’s night, and when we make-up it’s dark, but there is enough light to commute to work.
The Whole daylight saving time is stupid, especially when switching to winter time
Fair points, yeah.
Dark at 18. Its the dark at 16 that really gets me. and it is the dark to. I thought it was the cold. in particular I bike less in the winter and I thought I was a wus but I actually find im fine biking in the afternoon. Its really the problem of I don’t like to bike in the dark.
I don’t mind the winter if its cool & dry, not so much when its windy & raining…
The point when it gets dark at 4pm in December is the worst.
I LOOOOOOOOOVE winter time. It’s snowboard and snowmobile season baby!
If I’m not mistaken, I think OP meant switch from daylight saving time.
Ah…yeah, funk that. DST is dumb.
DST is what most people prefer. It’s the switch back to standard time that’s dumb.
Yep! It’s cold, damp, and dark and it goes on too long. Having to shovel snow is also awful. 0/10, do not recommend. I much prefer spring and summer.
Winter time, not wintertime.
Haha, missed that. Yes, I hate that too.
It’s just the transition I don’t like!
I dont care what outside is like. It’s always dark in the basement.
Honestly I don’t really like winter because that’s when my seasonal depression starts coming in full effect
I believe I have read read somewhere depression (or suicide I am not sure) is more common in summer. Which to me seems counter intuitive until I found out the main cause for this might be loneliness. So lonely people seeing other people getting together.
Would you say in your case depression worsens due longer nights or holiday season in December?
In my case, it’s cause it’s too hot to do anything and I can’t fuckin’ breath with all the plantmatter in the air. Non-winter seasons suck.
I prefer winter over any other season
I hate summer and daylight saving more.
If you’re too cold, you can always do something. If you’re too hot, you can only do so much then be miserable.
Yes! Brother, we might be few but we are here. Fuck Wintertime, summertime all along.
Does anyone else lowkey love the short bout of darkness before the sun rises and you’re up early? It feels like Christmas but nobody else is up
Moving towards the equator made me hate winter a lot less. Having more consistent daylight throughout the year made a big difference for me.
Yes. Not me, but yes.
