summer blues

Warm weather sadness

Summer blues is a feeling of melancholy or low mood during summer months, contrary to the expectation that warm weather and long days bring happiness.

Some people experience genuine seasonal depression in summer, while others simply feel left out of the carefree fun the season supposedly guarantees: Everyone's posting vacation photos and I'm stuck here with the summer blues.
