What Is SAD?

Often described as 'Winter Depression', Seasonal Affective Disorder is a type of depression that tends to occur during the winter. As with other types of depression, SAD symptoms include low mood and a lack of interest in life feeling irritable, feelings of despair, low self-esteem, a lack of energy and needing to sleep more. Whilst the causes are not fully understood, it is thought that the reduced exposure to sunlight may play an important role in SAD because sunlight affects some of our hormones.
