SDAC explain Seasonal Depression - Swipe through to learn why the short winter days can be hard for those experiencing mental health issues or in recovery.

Seasonal depression (also called Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD)) is a form of depression that occurs at the same time each year, most often in the autumn and winter, when daylight hours decrease.

It typically causes low mood, low energy, and changes in sleep or appetite that improve when the seasons change.

If you need help with how to deal with seasonal depression, call the SDAC helpline at: 0808 802 5000
