How do you fight the winter blues

I just go to Florida. lol

I try to keep occupied and count my blessings.

Doing whatever I can do at the time. So glad you are feeling so good. I have been working online but iwthout the internet right up until now. Good luck with the water colour paintings.

I hate extra vitamin D because of my dark skin tone and not enough sun in the winter. I try to get out and go to the stores to st least walk around. I keep buys with house cleaning, folding clothes and doctor visits for that I have to bring the rest of my family members too since they can’t drive.

Distract my mind with reading and movies and music and online.

I'm not fighting, mostly freezing.

We don't usually get the winter blues here. We try to stay busy, so that they don't settle in.

Easy--come down to Fort Lauderdale where it is 80 degrees today with a full blue sunny sky--and lots of 'bunnies' at the beach!!

I try to get outside( unless it's snowy or too cold)just to get some fresh air. Otherwise I spend my time listening to upbeat music, reading and crocheting. Throw in some tv shows at night and I'm happy. The one thing that gets me depressed about winter is when it gets dark so early and I can't open the windows and get fresh air in the house.

Look at all my holiday photos and plan another one!

That will be a nice hobby!! Water color!!! Please upload a pic of your painting!!

You are doing well I try to do the same plus spending time with my kids, my family and friends.

I usually would spend 10 days in Florida to escape the winter blues. My father owned a condo down there. Now I just brr (bare) it till the sweetness of Spring arrives.

It takes many things for me, and I have to keep trying new things. Music helps. A good movie helps as well.

I just left a comment at another discussion talking about the fabulous weather we are experiencing here in Austin, Texas USA. We don't have winter here enough to get the blues. But when it is a cold day I either enjoy some hot chocolate, warm apple cider, or a hearty bowl of soup! And binge watch something on Netflix. Although I'm a binge watcher whether the weather is hot or cold. It's not cold here right now but I am currently binge watching "The 4400". Have you seen it? To borrow a quote from the cute little German soldier on that old TV show "Laugh-In" ... it's bbeeerrryy in-TER-esting (I know you're old enough to remember that show. )

I don't really experience winter blues, but it certainly sounds like you have plenty of great ideas to keep you busy there.

I keep busy, I listen to music, I read, I watch some videos on my computer.

Well, I sure wish it would get warm again in Florida then I would head for the beach to beat the blues but no such luck so far. I also love to get busy with drawing and coloring so that helps a lot.

Its different living down south, we do not have much snow, of any and our days are usually mild. I cannot recall ever having the winter blues. I go outside a lot. I just stay busy so I don`t have time to think about me and feeling down.

I keep myself busy with the job and do some exercise. I get all fresh winter vegetables to eat. Winter vegetables have a different kind of taste.
