You&#8217;re tired, you don&#8217;t feel like doing anything, your <strong>spirits<\/strong> are low&#8230; If you&#8217;re feeling like this, there&#8217;s one thing you should know: you&#8217;re not alone!<\/p>\n\n\n<p>In France, January is also <a href=\"https:\/\/fr.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Blue_Monday_(jour)\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Blue Monday<\/a>, considered to be the most depressing day of the year.
