Luz Lopez(4th period)- Your brain performs better when it's cold outside

     Everyone knows that the cold affects certain peoples moods. It usually lowers their mood, causes depression, and sometimes slows their mind to a crawl. Most people just wanna crawl into bed and stay there. But scientists have come to discover that this may not be right. They say that we should look at the season in a new, brighter light. The weather may be cloudy, but scientists say we can actually deal with it without being moody. In a massive investigation, people found out that depression symptoms are  worse in the winter months.
     I found this article kinda weird. It has been scientifically proven that the weather makes you moody because you choose to see it that way. This reminded me of the Great Depression. Everyone was very depressed that the stock market crashed.

  2. This story does not seem very true to me. I would like to see the evidence and the premise for the experiment before believing that winter months worsen depression. For me, I love the winter months, so maybe I just have a hard time believing that this is true.
