Feeling depressed?

It’s a common greeting in Australia to say “How ya going”. It is, in my opinion, superficial and meaningless because the person posing the question doesn’t really care. Lately I have been responding “a little depressed actually”, then conversation may start. Why they may ask, and here is why.
Our bodies need vitamin D and that comes from the sun. For reasons explained in story number 1274 we have had many days with showers or overcast conditions. Many days. And to my surprise they, the people replying to my comment have spoken of feeling the same. It seems this weather has caused this ailment has effected many.
One can always take a pill to substitute the sun and that may well be a good inexpensive anti depressant. Prefer the sun myself.
