Why do we experience the irresistible urge to get away to a sunny climate in the dead of winter? The answer is that light energizes us and improves health.

Seasonal depression disorder This is a health article which discusses Seasonal Affective Disorder or SAD. The ailment effects some ten million Americans. Do you start wishing your were a brown bear around late December, so you could curl up inside your warm den and sleep for the next three months? Does your energy ebb quicker in the winter and your appetite soar to alarming heights? If so, you're not alone. The indolence of winter can be attributed to more than just dreary weather. Most recent estimates say about 10 million Americans suffer from seasonal depression and another 25 million have milder versions. Lack of light has always had an effect on human beings. Like other animals, humans respond to darkness by producing more melatonin, which acts like a tranquilizer on the body. In just an hour of darkness, we can produce five times as much melatonin as during daylight hours. At sunrise, the bright light ordinarily causes the body to stop producing melatonin, but in the winter not enough light is received to trigger the signal to stop production. For most people, the negative aspects of winter are annoying, but not a problem. However, people with a condition known as SAD, or seasonal affective disorder suffer from more serious symptoms. This malady is four times as common in women as in men. This disorder was first identified fifteen years ago by Norman Rosenthal, M.D. at the National Institute of Mental Health. Since then, scientists have continued to learn more about SAD and it's effects. A milder form is known as the "winter blues."

She had no trouble keeping up with her schoolwork and was involved in several after-school activities. But after the Thanksgiving break, she began to have difficulty getting through her assigned reading and had to work harder to apply herself. She couldn't concentrate in class, and after school all she wanted to do was sleep. Her grades began to drop, and she rarely felt like socializing. Even though Maggie was always punctual before, she began to have trouble getting up on time and was absent or late from school many days during the winter.

Health Matters All in the Mind The Buzz Earthbeat ... Quantum Seasonal Affective Disorder Broadcast Monday 11 August 1997 with Summary: There are people who become depressed only at certain times of the year. Usually it's winter, but for some it can be summer. The condition is known as SAD, Seasonal Affective Disorder. Transcript: There are people who become depressed only at certain times of the year. Usually it's winter, but for some it can be summer. The condition is known as SAD, Seasonal Affective Disorder and the winter version is usually treated by sitting in front of a bank of fluorescent lights for a period each day. The theory is that the problem relates to a mis-timed body clock which the lights re-set. Research at the University of Washington in Seattle is suggesting though that there may be a less disruptive way of fixing up this type of depression. One of the people involved is psychiatrist, Dr David Avery. He's been working on seasonal affective disorder for some years and finds there's plenty of business in north western United States. Dr Avery: It varies with latitude. The latitude of Seattle is about 47 degrees north, the incidence is about 10 per cent of the population, then another 20 per cent have more mild form of the winter depression, the winter blues.

Home News Depression Bipolar Disorder ... Links Seasonal Affective Disorder People may not show symptoms of SAD or "Winter Depression" until they experience lack of bright light due to decrease in daytime hours. Therefore, symptoms generally show up in late fall and begin to lessen in the spring. Research shows that bright light makes a difference to the brain chemistry which in turn affects the internal body clock. The exact causes are not yet known although researchers do know it is not a psychosomatic or imaginary illness. Symptoms Of SAD: Feelings of sadness, anxiety, and hopelessness. Loss of physical energy, feeling lethargic, or tired all the time. Sleep problems. Increase or decrease in appetite. Feelings of guilt, worthlessness, and low self-esteem. Loss of motivation. Thinking or memory impairment, or poor concentration. Muscle aches and pains. Restlessness, irritability. For a person who is significantly affected, an assessment should be made by their family doctor as some physical problems can show up as a depressive state. If there is nothing wrong physically and a person thinks they may have SAD, they can be referred to a psychiatrist who is aware of the disorder and in turn, can effectively treat it. It stands to reason that since the cause of SAD or the "Winter Blues" is lack of light, the main way of controlling the disorder would be by using light treatment, sometimes called phototherapy, every day.
