December is Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) Awareness Month

SAD is a type of depression, so the symptoms look similar to depression symptoms, and can include:

  • Sad, anxious, or “empty” feelings
  • Feelings of hopelessness, guilt, worthlessness, or helplessness
  • Loss of interest or pleasure in formerly enjoyable activities
  • Fatigue and decreased energy
  • Overeating (or conversely, lack of appetite)
  • Difficulty concentrating, remembering details, or making decisions
  • Social withdrawal
  • Thoughts of death or suicide

If these describe you or a loved one this time of year, you are not alone. Talk to a mental health specialist or health care provider and find out what therapies or treatments may be available to you.
