Most depressing day of the year today?

I have seen news reports that psychologists have dubbed today the most depressing day of the year, apparently they have come up with six reasons why they feel people should be at their most depressed today.
The bad weather:
The fact that people now realize the debts they have run up over Christmas:
The fact that Christmas has been over for a couple of weeks.
The assumption that most people will have failed in their new year resolutions:
The assumption that most people have low motivational levels today:
The assertion that people feel the need to take action:
In my opinion the psychologists that came up with this need the help of their colleagues to get over their pessimistic leanings.
The bad weather is part of the cycle of seasons and is needed to ensure nature has its rest, so that everything can bloom again in the spring and give us our summers to enjoy.
The fact that Christmas has been over for a couple of weeks means our next holiday is that much closer.
The assumption that most people have failed to keep their new year resolutions is just that an assumption, there will be many people who are succeeding in the plans and goals they have set.
The assumption that most people will have low motivational levels today is based on the the belief that most people have a pessimistic outlook, I believe there are many more people with a positive outlook who are well motivated.
The assertion that people feel the need to take action is only valid if you accept that all the other reasons to feel depressed are themselves correct which I hope this article will challenge.
We have the whole year ahead of us, it is up to us to make it good.
