Winter Blues?

I am feeling exactly the same as my friend. Being a nocturnal person, I don't mind the long nights. But something is not quite right. I feel lifeless and down. Like the animals, I just want to hibernate and not see anyone. For the first time since arriving in UK, I feel very cold. I used to wear short-sleeve Ts and shorts during winters and Adrian would say I'm not human. Seriously, the cold didn't bother me at all. Then that is. But this time round, I'm always freezing. I'll layer with long-sleeve Ts and jumpers which is so uncharacteristic of me. Yesterday was the ultimate. I wore 2 pairs of socks! Cooking also becomes an utter chore to me. What used to be steamed rice with 2 dishes dinners become a one-pot, one-dish affair. I simply cannot be bothered to whip up anything fancy or elaborate. Have I been afflicted with SAD (seasonal affective disorder)?
