do you notice that seasons affect your SI behaviors?? Do you think that SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder) plays a part in your behaviors? I know for me fall is the hardest time yet it is my favorite season. I get more migraines and my depression worsens and I wanted to possibly chat with people who share similar experiences. . . thanks for taking the time to get back

I started in the winter months...February to be exact. It's always around Christmas and afterwards that I'm the most depressed. I really don't know if I cut less in the summer, completely because of emotions. I think I just cut in different places, and if I do cut less it's because I don't want to wear tons of clothes in the hot-weather. Because winter allows certain leverage. Cold weather and you can pile on more clothes...so that probably plays the biggest part for me.
If I can't cut myself I just do other (possibly worse) things, like starving myself or bathing in scalding water.
So, I guess for me it's just a matter of irrational practicality.

Summer is probably the easiest for me cuz i know that my mom would figure out that i cut myself since i cut my belly. the hardest has to be fall or winter cuz everything depressing happens like when ur team loses or u go out with more people and break up. i also have never heard of sad till now. it probably does contribute to it.

I don't cut anymore, but winter is definitly the hardest time for me and the time i used to cut the most. I think it's definitly seasonal depression, on top of the overall bad feeling I always had. That and it's easier to hide cuts and bruises in the colder months so i used to tend to let myself go, i guess.

ok I cut and my hardest season is also fall, but I think it has more to do with me going back to school that the actual season, plus I'm 13 and never heard of SAD before now.

For me.....I haven't really thought about it, but now that I think about it I remember the worse periods of SI happened in fall-winter.....althoug I really love this season too...
Good luck....
