Seasonal Mood Disorder 365 - Overview

Welcome to Seasonal Mood Disorder 365! Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) has an extremely accurate acronym for what it entails. The disorder doesn't only include depression as a symptom, but can make someone oversleep and also have a strong craving for carbohydrates.

This combination can lead to a large weight gain. Also listed among the possible symptoms are anxiety and loss of libido - neither of which sound pleasant to experience.

The disorder often starts affecting those around the age of 18 and antidepressants have been found in some cases to only increase symptoms. The disorder has a tendency to only affect people from the months of October to May.
