>actually thinking the amount of sunlight you get makes you depressed
Apparently, we're fucking flowers now.
These people are fucking retarded, correct me if I'm wrong, but there's always been the same amount of sunlight per day, we just adjust our clocks because of the gradual shift in the day cycle.
Its true apparently
>there's always been the same amount of sunlight per day, we just adjust our clocks
beat me to it, op is a literal dumb fuck
That tweet is kind of retarded but you know there's much more sunlight during the summer than winter right?
No matter the measure of "time", the amount of visible daylight is pre-determined by the planets orbit around the sun.
Fuck off flower fags.
Fuck off serotonin fuckwits.
Seasonal Affective Disorder is a real thing, winters have shorter days and summer has longer days. More sunlight tends to equate to less depressed populations over all and there are a number of studies that suggest it does impact serotonin levels. TL;DR: We are fucking flowers and have been.
Please explain daylight savings to me then
Shit you had me going until that one. 4/10 bait have some anime tits.
But it is true, countries with longer nights during winter have higher suicide and depression rates
Nicee one Elon...Nice one!
>dumb thots that spend all day inside taking selfies for instagram
FUCK there just isn't enough SUN what do I DO better post 50 tweets about my depression and anxiety and ocd and bpd and ptsd
Seasonal affective disorder is a real thing.
And we are kind of "like flowers" in one respect I can think of. A problem in more northern countries is getting enough vitamin D. It's because sunlight helps us turn the cholesterol in our bodies into vitamin D.
The transition between shorter and longer days is gradual though, so this guy thinking the time shift will just magically take away their depression kinda implies it's all placebo for him.
Checked
At least someone in this thread isn't completely retarded
You could be the richest mofo on earth and still be depressed if your serotonin levels are low. Same 4 me (kinda). I have a beautiful GF, a good payed job, a large flat, no enemies etc. All in all a good life.-But, over the last couple of months me and my friends did some drugs. Mostly MDMA. To the point where i didnt felt any euphoria at all. I was down for Like 5 weeks straight. I had no good feelings. Nothing made feel happy or well. And yea. The sun gives you Vitamin d and bla bla bla. Its true your Serotonin lvls are lower in the Winter season. Alot of people get winterdepressions Here.
how much of it we get exposed to is largely dependent on time zone though.
Out of curiosity, are there any substitutes for the sun? For example a UV light, blue lights or something?
True. It's worse the closer to the poles people live.
It is partly why Vitamin D is correlated with mood disorders: Humans are better able to make our own VitD from other nutrients when we get some sun on the reg.
FUCKIN CHECKEM!!!!!
It's the cold that makes me depressed, not less sun.
>sees twitter post
>"hai b look at what i just saw this is fucking retarded sjw shit amirite btw go look this up n get back to me i cant be assed to do it myself"
This is not how the scientific method works.
I have a light therapy lamp with a full spectrum bulb. They're really popular in Alaska.
Fuck pussies and all that, but you fuckwits do know this is absolutely a real thing, right? I't not even a remotely new thing. It's been known for decades and decades now.
If we wanted DST to help with SAD, we'd set our clocks ahead in the winter so it's lighter when we wake up. Bright light in the morning resets your circadian rhythms.
There's also supposedly some goofy ass lookin' glasses you can wear that have leds in them that light up your face, that supposedly helps with SAD. you're supposed to wear them for some set amount of time to help you not feel like offing yourself, or whatever
I had a light therapy lamp at my desk when I lived in Portland. They help.
T. Arizonafag now, no deep depression for 8+ years
>What are circadian rhythms
It does fuck nut.
It's not SAD in this case they're wrong about that, but a sudden shift in your sleep schedule has immense impacts on your physical and mental health while you adjust
I mean, I'm not sure what all vitamin d does, but you get it from sunlight. So maybe it could have an effect.
THOSE FUCKING DIGITS
THESE FUCKING DIGITS
Too stupid to understand or believe science.
For sure you are a flower, likely a snow flake too.
Might want to consider not sharing your opinions, it's just verification that you are special.
DOUBLE DUBS
DOUBLE DUBBED TRIPS!!!
THIS US NOW A GIT THREAD
Where I work we have to change shifts every 6 weeks and some times sooner. How fucked am I?
I have a degree in psychology (Yes. I know.) it’s true. Seasonal Affective Disorder is very real. Take a look at places like Greenland and Alaska. Their rates of depression are significantly higher.
You are a fucking idiot
nigga gets quads and isnt a dumbass, bravo negro
The amount of sunlight per day changes every day due to the tilt of the earth. Evening out at the equinox and the opposite at the solstice. Daylight savings shifts the clocks for old ass reasons.
Why do you copy and spam this shit? What does googling this lead to? Can anyone tell me.what the spams for
The tilt, not orbit.
Just take Vitamin D supplements. Isn't that hard, and it helps more than you might think.
>winter
>Sun up at like 10am sundown at like 5pm
>summer
>Sun up at like 5am sundown at like 10pm
>we get the same amount of sunlight all year
For the record: if it were a cycle we wouldn't have spring forward;fall back. A cycle goes in one direction so we either just keep losing an hour or keep gaining an hour but not both.

What the fuck is happening to this thread.
OP was a dumbass faggot spouting shit like 99.9% of all of Yea Forums at any given time of the day for years and years...and the rest of the thread actually called him out on this?
You're all...not completely deficient?
You have an IQ above 3?
You're all calling OP a stupid faggot that is dumb as shit?
What is happening to this place?
What is this, am i dreaming right now?
>fuck off flower fags
10/10
Thanks.
Fuck off
Based.
The tilt if the Earth means you get more sun in the summer time and less in the winter, it has nothing to do with DST other than the fact that it essentially acts as a way of knowing when the days change from a higher sunlight: nighttime ratio and vice versa
