Is it normal to be in a better mood when it is overcast/rainy outside?

For some reason I am much happier on cloudy and rainy days because for some reason they feel so much more relaxing and nice to me than sunny days. Almost all my bad days when I'm stressed out or in a bad mood for no reason always happen on sunny days, but I'm always content when the weather is bad by most people's standards. Is this normal and what could be the reason that I feel this way?

    I feel the same way! Even to the point where I want to move to Seattle. The sunshine makes me feel hot and uncomfortable. I just really really love the way rain makes me feel so safe and happy. :)

    I love rainy and stormy days. It makes me wish it was rainy out more often.

    I hate sunny and perfect days!! The sun is a bitch. I love rain, dark clouds, wind, etc. I think it just feels so much more real.

    I feel the same way. There are days where I feel sad because it's NOT raining. Some may find this strange but it's notmal.

    Rainy, dark, and overcast weather is absolutely invigorating and lovely. The rhythm of the rain seems so powerful to me. It makes me feel so amazing. Its normal to love feeling relaxed and at peace. Sun is nice but can be a bit harsh.

    Don't worry, I hate the sun [laughs] it makes me feel scrutinized & uncomfortable. I always say 'I love Rain' & disagree when people say 'it's a lovely day' & 'what great weather we're having' on hot, Sunny, summer days.
    Gloomy/cloudy skies are pretty & I love the cold

    I just love rainy gloomy days. Summer doesn't get too hot where I live. Except maybe for 10 days a year. You are right. It's comforting when it rains.
