For those that aren't familiar with it.

http://www.outsidein.co.uk/sadinfo.htm

I think I suffer from sub-syndromal SAD. I've been like this for in the past few years. I'm really down but I haven't a real good reason to be. Well there could be one but nothing major compared to most people. I'm rather moody and get angery easily at the slightest things at the moment. Could say its that time of the year, I guess.

Anyone else suffer from it, even if its only a mild form of it?

My brother supposedly has it, the doctor recommended he take a placement year in a sunny country so he went to Tasmania through his Uni. I am skeptical though.

I suffer from it, but the opposite to the norm. I get down, depressed and lethargic around springtime.

They suffer from it really badly in these places like Siberia where they only get a few precious moments of sunlight in the whole year. Its to do with your chemicals in the brain stimuated by light. Doctors and psychologists prescribe special lights that are extemely strong, when people sat under the light for just a hour they significantly improved. I am still sceptical about this illness but in any case try to gets lots of light; i.e. always keep lights on in your room etc.

Hope that helps in anyway.

That has something to do with it but I have also noticed a difference between summer me and winter me the past few years. Not saying I have an extreme case of SAD but a mild one. I'm also a bit of a hypochondriac but that's besides the point.

Wow. That's interesting. Sounds better now in a way because I think 'depression' seems a little more far fetched.

I laughed quite a bit when I first heard about it... you surely can't call a depression illness SAD.

But it exists, it seems. Crikey.

That was indeed a bad thing. So far I'm not like that. I hope I never will be either.

I'm feeling very deflated and so I'm off to bed. Good Night.
