[color:07ca=black][font:07ca=Calibri]Seasonal affective disorder (SAD) is a type of depression that some people experience during the winter months. It starts as the days get shorter and colder, and it lasts until summer, when symptoms usually disappear. SAD is far more intense than common “winter blues” or “winter blahs”, which many people complain of from time to time .People who live in regions far north or south of the equator are more likely to suffer from SAD. For example, SAD is far less common in Florida than in Canada. In fact, SAD patients report great improvement when visiting places with more sunlight in winter. SAD is sometimes treated with special light boxes prescribed by doctors. Of course, the ultimate remedy is to move to a place with a sunny climate year round![/font][/color]
