What Is Seasonal Affective Disorder?
Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) is a form of depression that appears at the same time each year. With SAD, a person typically has symptoms of depression and unexplained fatigue as winter approaches and daylight hours become shorter. When spring returns and days become longer again, people with SAD experience relief from their symptoms, returning to their usual mood and energy level.
How is Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) treated?
Because the symptoms of SAD are triggered by lack of exposure to light, and they tend to go away on their own when available light increases, treatment for SAD often involves increased exposure to light during winter months. For someone with mild symptoms, it may be enough to spend more time outside during the daylight hours, perhaps by exercising outdoors or taking a daily walk.
Stronger symptoms of SAD may be treated with light therapy (also called phototherapy.) Light therapy involves the use of a special light that simulates daylight. And if properly dosed can produce relief within days. Antidepressants may also help, and if necessary can be used in conjunction with light.
