Winter and the cold season has always been tough for me in Japan. It’s like my emotions just die. I feel so tense and tired all the time. I used to drink alcohol in the past, but looking back that really made things worse. Thankfully I don’t drink anymore, but now I feel like I am trying to get through this alone. This is my first winter without alcohol.
I am using my drive to pass Kanken level 2 and N1 to get me through but it’s really tough. I also run and lift but it’s been a little sporadic these days since my studying is taking priority. I ran on Friday after work and it actually made me feel worse. Maybe stick to lifting at night and running in the morning when I can?
Anyone else go through similar during the winter? How do you handle it?
