Stung into action by this thread. Dug two holes for pear trees, finished carving a spoon and planted some winter salad. The warm, virtuous, and dare I say smug feeling is wonderful.
Apathy......

Now that's funny. If I had a problem with depression that comment would have made it go away. I actually laughed out loud. My sympathies though to those that have a tough go of it in the winter.
I'll see your Gloomy Sunday and raise with this little gem ....

I think it's just Human nature, when we can't do something, we want to do it, & when we can do it we find other things to do. Planning & imagining the things you're going to do, help you get through your working day, a sort of mental escapism...................so don't think of it as apathy, but as a work place survival technic........... & there's always tomorrow.
That's interesting because I work with a guy of Hungarian descent whose parents are from South of Budapest, and he has a very good, very dark sense of humour......Until he gets depressed (which is winter time). Then it is a hard job to put a smile on his face. Roll on Spring!
Nooooo!
A piece of Pig fat on bread with a glass of plumb brandy usually does the trick.
