UPDATE – When Cabin Fever Strikes!!
By the time February rolls around, that cozy feeling we get when we snuggle up by the fire for a long winter’s night is wearing thin!! The long, ice-cold evenings and short, dismal days of this season are losing their appeal. Daylight is in short supply, the outside world is a slushy wasteland, and we’re inside feeling cooped up, irritable, lethargic and depressed.
Welcome to the world of cabin fever.
Cabin fever may not be a psychiatric diagnosis, but it is a real thing, clinical psychologist Joel Klapow told TIME magazine in 2014.
