It's that time of the year again. Bad weather, post-Christmas debt and poor motivation have conspired to create every office worker's worst nightmare on January 20: Blue Monday.
Widely considered to be the most depressing day of the year, Blue Monday will be fuelled this year by new research showing that 32pc of UK adults relied on credit cards to pay for Christmas.
But one charity believes it has the solution to combat the late January slump; dressing brightly. Mental Health Research UK is urging people to dress in colourful clothing on Monday to highlight the plight of those who suffer from depression and seasonal affective disorder (SAD) as part of their "Blooming Monday" event.
