Slightly unhinged but it works…

Officially on my 6th year as an Aussie in New York and the sun setting at 4pm is hitting me 😵‍💫🇦🇺➡️🗽

Seasonal depression hit me like a rogue magpie and we have no trip planned to Aus this January.

Instead of spiralling here’s how I’m surviving SAD (slightly unhinged but effective):

🔥 Infrared saunas (cosplaying as the Australian sun)

🏃‍♀️ Daily exercise or I lose the plot

📖 A good book = emotional support object

💊 Vitamins D3 + K2 because science

⏰ Hatch New York alarm clock to gaslight myself into thinking it’s summer

Anyway if you see me power-walking Manhattan pretending it’s Bondi, mind your business. Spring is coming. I think. ☀️😮‍💨
