Finally, I have found a name for my phobia. I cannot adequately describe the dread I feel even contemplating the coming warm months. I definitely have obsessive thoughts about it. I even notice the fear and dread beginning in January, as the days get slowly longer. I can’t handle bright sunlight. I become paralyzed almost by summerdepressions. Even thinking about it fills me with such despair. I think mine came from about ten years or more of disastrous moves in the summer, in a very hot climate, as well as other things that got lumped into it. Because of things that happened in spring, that has also become part of it. Flowers bloom, and I weep.

Has anyone had any success treating this with a professional? Twenty-five Years is a longtime to fear 8-9 months of the year.
