*How To Get Out of a Funk*
Everyone goes through periods of temporary sadness and lack of motivation. It's called being in a funk, and while some symptoms may mirror clinical depression, being in a funk is different in that it's a temporary situation and not a clinical diagnosis.

*Why Am I So Sad?*
