I just found this

I feel a little better after seeing this for some reason.

If it were true that Jan. 24 was the most depressing day of the year,then that would mean that every one of my birthdays would have been awful. This year, my birthday was pretty bad but that's because it just happened to fall in the midst of a painful period of anxiety and worry. I've had a few really happy birthdays here and there. But, the statement that people who live close to the equator where the sun shines more often, do not suffer from mid-winter depression is just a lot of poop. I'm presently living in Thailand and the tropical location has done nothing whatever to change my 35-year-long anxiety/depression tendencies. Without an AD in my system EVERY DAY of the year, I will surely relapse-Land of Sunny Smiles or not. So I think that this so-called expert psychologist is making some pretty stupid generalizations.

Well, maybe by his calculations but not by mine. My worst day started early Dec and will probably end, if I'm lucky, maybe in May.

While they try to take a number of factors into account there are a number of other factors that are not taken into account.
They say that this isn't the be all and end all but I think it is incredably significant that
IT IS SUMMER HERE.
I bet we could calculate a similar one round June or July for the southern hemisphere. I bet travel agency bookings are highest round then. Mid year slump is what we get over here.
Open your eyes people
