Seasonal affective disorder (SAD)
During the winter months, you may find yourself eating more or sleeping more, when
the temperature drops and darkness falls earlier. While those are common and
normal reactions to the changing seasons, people with seasonal affective disorder
(SAD) experience a much more serious reaction when summer turns to autumn and
on to winter.
With seasonal affective disorder, short days and long nights may trigger feelings of
depression, lethargy, fatigue and other problems. Don't brush this off as simply a
case of the "winter blues" that you have to tough out on your own.
Seasonal affective disorder is a type of depression, and it can severely impair your
daily life. That said, treatment — which may include light box therapy — can help you
successfully manage seasonal affective disorder. You don't have to dread the
dawning of each autumn or winter
