Hopefully these, and other mood enhancing recipes and foods, can help bring you out of that winter funk. Of course, food alone won’t do the trick. Exercise, Vitamin D (which can be FREE, through a healthy, daily dose of sunlight) and/or staying socially active (in person, not always through your phone) can also be helpful.
If you or someone you know is showing serious signs of depression or mental illness, remember that there is help out there, such as the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline (1-800-273-8255), Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) (1-800-662-HELP (4357) and SAD Support Groups.
