Extractions: By Robert Burton, M.D. Jan. 3, 2000 D own in the dumps? Want to curl up in bed rather than go hang gliding? Are you eating lots of candy and fruitcake? Gaining weight? You bet: It's cold and dark out. More than just a season, winter has become a metaphor for the dark side of life. Most of us accept the winter blahs as normal and wait for spring. But for some, seasonal doldrums can be a real problem. My mother, a tradition-confused West Coast Jew, might have been onto something. She insisted on having a large Christmas tree in the living room, but she refused the usual panoply of ghastly colors. Instead she used exclusively white bulbs. "Colored lights are for the goyim," she would say with the slyest of smiles. When pressed, she would add, "Bright white is better for your spirits." (Another Jewish tradition justifying any peculiar taste on the basis of health reasons). But was my mother right? Were the bright white Christmas tree bulbs therapeutic? Would votive candles have done the job? Or a trip to Florida? Or spending the winter in a brightly lit casino? Are TV and computer monitors evolutionary answers for the winter blahs? I don't doubt that we get bummed out at this time of year, but is this a specific biological condition or a more metaphysical malaise?

Seasonal Affective Disorder , or SAD, is a pattern of significant depressive episodes that occur, then disappear with the change of seasons One person in five will experience a depressive episode in his or her life, but only five percent of the population suffers from full-blown SAD. Another ten to twenty percent of the population suffers from at least some of the symptoms of SAD.

Extractions: Disorder (SAD) Seasonal affective disorder (SAD) is a type of depression that occurs at the same time each year (usually winter) for at least 2 years in a row. It sometimes is called the "winter blues" because most people with seasonal affective disorder have an episode of depression during the winter months, although it is possible to experience SAD during summer months. SAD consists of four central features: People with SAD who have episodes of depression in the winter usually live in areas far north of the equator, where there are shorter days in the winter months (such as Alaska and other northern states in the United States, as well as Canada and Scandinavian countries). They begin to get symptoms of depression in the fall, need treatment throughout the winter, and get better in the spring and summer as the days lengthen. Less is known about seasonal affective disorder in which episodes of depression occur in the summer. Symptoms of summer SAD usually appear in late spring or early summer and resolve in the fall. Summer SAD may be related to excessive heat rather than a lack of light. A person with summer SAD may be irritable or have no energy.
