Weather! For me it's weather. Since I left the northeast ten years ago and moved to places that are perpetually sunny--I rarely get depressed.

And I rarely let myself go to unproductive places. Er, except Free Republic. But I mean mentally.

My twin sister now lives in Seattle, and I swear I have to talk her don from the ledge during every extended rainy period(not literally). We grew up in the sunny south, so the climate in Seattle has an especially depressing effect on her, I think. There are so many internal/external contributing factors for depression-- the complexity of the mind is staggering.

I lived in sunny AZ for ten years and couldn't stand it. The sun was constantly in my eyes and the heat makes people irritable. Nothing ever changed there, imo. Everything always looked the same. To me, that was 'depressing' (although I never technically got depressed) and boring! I love it here in New Hampshire. That just goes to show how different people react to different circumstances :-)
