Paying off debt, saving, and living simply all take planning, something I'm not as good at as I really thought.
I've really resisted planning things out because it seems to take so long. Am I just the kind of person that has to have something to complain about? It's probably just the fact that my Dysthymia and SAD get in the way of planning because they make it seem like so much work. In reality I don't like to take time away from what I want to do and I always think what I want to do is more important than anything else. Wow, I guess it's true that saying, "The truth hurts.", because that hurt to admit. I wonder how much I've messed up my family by always putting myself first? I guess I'm getting into things that might not have a place on this blog. Sorry about that. 
I'm going to take small steps in planning so that I don't get frustrated when something unexpected happens because I don't want to fail and I don't want to give up.

I assume that because of the annonymity of the blog world, we do self-disclose easier than in reality - I know I'm guilty of sharing tons here (mostly when I'm feeling petty and/or self-righteous - follow my blog and my quest for becoming a better person is a fairly common thread!) Anyhow, understanding the root of the problem is at least a starting point. Knowing that your dysthymic and have SAD is a starting point. BUT what are you going to do to not use those as excuses and put a plan in action?

You mention some remedies for SAD, which I'm already beginning to feel (already snow in October in NJ). Can you elaborate on full-spectrum system. And for you Janet, don't give up!
