March often marks a transition between seasons, routines, and emotional rhythms. As winter begins to ease, some people experience renewed energy, while others feel unsettled or emotionally fatigued. These shifts can impact mental health and recovery in subtle ways we might not always spot until it's too late.

Merit Resources recognizes that seasonal transitions affect everyone differently and that support remains important during periods of change. If you or a loved one feels a pull toward unsafe behaviors, visit https://www.meritresources.org/ to get in touch or explore resources.
