Are you prepared for ‘the most depressing day of the year’?

Christmas is over, new years resolutions have gone down the drain and it’s freezing outside. With that in mind, it’s quite plausible that tomorrow is the most depressing day of the year.

 

According to a formula, created by psychologist Dr. Cliff Arnall, tomorrow, January 18th also known as ‘Blue Monday’ is the most depressing day of the year.

Here’s the formula:

Blue-Monday

W is weather, D is debt, d is monthly salary, T is the time passed since Christmas, Q is the time since the failure of an attempt to give something up, M is low motivational level and Na is the need to take action.

The formula was created back in 2005 with many refuting the logic. Others completely agree that mid-January is majorly depressing.

What do you think, will tomorrow be the most depressing day of the year?
