18 January - Blue Monday
The name was reportedly coined by psychologist Cliff Arnall in 2004, it falls on the third Monday in January every year. This has been disputed by others over the years. He came up with it after a holiday company asked him for a "scientific formula" for the January blues (the sadness that comes with this period).
In general Blue Monday is considered part of pseudoscience. All in all, it is considered fake and scientists don’t accept it as real.
Cliff Arnall talked about Blue Monday in the Independent in 2018. Many companies adopted the idea of Blue Monday and created campaigns based on its concept.
