have you thought about looking into seasonal depression? sometimes people react badly to the change in lighting/weather, and it just brings everything to a big of a clusterfuck in their head. also; the fixation on religion around this time could be coincidental or possibly linked with everything else. if you ever need to vent or need help with anything, im always around.
dude thats sick, im happy for you. i wish my job would give me a bonus lol
