Autumn Blues: When the Dark Season Weighs on Your Mood

🍂 The days are getting shorter, it’s getting dark earlier—and suddenly everything feels a little harder?

You’re not alone in this. Many of us feel more tired, listless, and down in the fall. Less daylight throws our internal rhythm off balance. Often, just a little self-care in daily life can help:

☀️ Get out into the daylight every day—even on gray days, it’s much brighter outside than inside. 🚶 Stay active—a walk along the Inn River or a stroll around the village is good for both body and mind. 🛏️ A consistent sleep schedule provides stability, especially now after the clock change. 💬 Stay connected—have coffee with friends, give your family a call.

Sometimes, though, there’s more to it than just the autumn blues. Have you been feeling down for more than two weeks, find almost nothing enjoyable anymore, or are you barely getting through the day? Then take this seriously and come see us. Together, we’ll figure out what’s best for you—without shame, without judgment.

And if you’re feeling really down right now: The telephone counseling service is available 24/7 at 142.
