What is SAD Seasonal Affective Disorder?
Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) is a specific type of major depression, one which reoccurs at specific times of the year. The most common pattern is the onset of major depression in the fall (September through November) and abating of the symptoms in late winter to early spring (March through May). There are other people who experience periods of abnormally high or euphoric mood between major depressive episodes. The frequency of SAD seems to vary with geographic location. It may approach 10% of the general population in northern New England, 5% of the population in the Baltimore/Washington area, and less than 2% of the population of Southern California or Florida. How is S.A.D. similar

Seasonal Affective Disorder
What is Seasonal Affective Disorder?
Some people suffer from symptoms of depression during the winter months, with symptoms subsiding during the spring and summer months. This may be a sign of Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD). SAD is a mood disorder associated with depression episodes and related to seasonal variations of light.
fact sheet index
Symptoms Include:
  • regularly occurring symptoms of depression (excessive eating and sleeping, weight gain) during the fall or winter months. a craving for sugary and/or starchy foods.
Possible Cause of this Disorder
Melatonin, a sleep-related hormone secreted by the pineal gland in the brain, has been linked to SAD. This hormone, which may cause symptoms of depression, is produced at increased levels in the dark. Therefore, when the days are shorter and darker the production of this hormone increases. Treatments

Summary
Recent research on seasonal affective disorder (SAD) has refined the diagnostic criteria and highlighted the heterogeneous nature of the disorder. Recent light therapy studies show improved methodology, but some negative studies add to the controversy over non-specific (placebo) effects of light exposure. Several psychobiologic studies generated interesting data, but the pathophysiology of SAD remains elusive and unconfirmed. to top
Introduction
The decade since the publication of Rosenthal et al's 1984 paper [1] defining seasonal affective disorder (SAD) has seen remarkable research interest into the seasonality of mood disorders and treatment with bright light. For example, Medline has included a separate Medical Subject Heading (MeSH) for seasonal affective disorder, and over 100 articles have been indexed since-1991 alone. In the past year, publications have focused on the diagnosis, symptomatology, epidemiology, and light therapy of SAD. to top
Symptoms And Diagnosis
The validity of SAD as a diagnosis has received attention because of the impending publication of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 4th edition (DSM-IV) [2,3*]. Draft diagnostic criteria for seasonal pattern (Table 1) were revised according to empiric data and consensus in the field [4*]. SAD continues to be classified as a 'seasonal pattern' for unipolar and bipolar mood disorders, and is included as one of several 'course specifiers' of the major mood disorders (along with rapid cycling and post partum).

Gila Lindsley, Ph.D., A.C.P. Celebrating the Thanksgiving festival begins our final descent down to the winter solstice, the shortest day of the year. As the last of the leaves fall from the trees and the sun sinks lower and lower on the horizon the spirits of some sink with it; and as the days grow shorter and shorter, shorter too grows the memory of sunshine and warmth. With the New England overcast sky above, the blustery winds and the trees now barren of leaves, how difficult it is for many to keep the inner fires burning. Many become SAD. That is, many may develop Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD). Surely not everyone succumbs to the blahs or the blues in wintertime. The vigor, joy and pleasure of winter skiers; the surge of energy and increased appetites many people feel once the summer's heat has lifted; these surely speak to the happiness and pleasure winter brings for some.

Depression that responds to light
We treated her with bright light, and discovered soon thereafter that she had an unusual amount of company when the lights were on. Even her personal counselor mysteriously re-arranged the scheduling of counseling sessions so they "just happened" to coincide with this woman's bright light sessions! The lights lit up the lives of many people that winter.

Seasonal Affective Disorder
Seasonal affective disorder, also known as winter depression is a mood disorder that usually occurs during the dark months of

Community Latest News What is Clinical Depression?
In the normal course of life, everyone has times when they feel somewhat less than happy and optimistic. Although many people attribute their feelings of sadness or lethargy to the onset of depression, it's important to understand that medical professionals have specific indicators that they use to make a diagnosis of clinical depression. When you know more about what's wrong you can make it right.
Let's start with the word "clinical." By definition, a condition is clinical if it is directly observed. That is, the professional does not count on a patient's self-report but is more likely to check for symptoms of depression that can be observed and documented. Clinical depression is a phrase used to describe a condition serious enough to require clinical (professional) and possibly pharmacological intervention. Clinical depression, according to medical sources, lasts more than two weeks and is usually not precipitated by anything external.
For example, if you've just lost your job and have no money in your bank account, you may feel stressed, anxious, panicked, and unable to function. However, most of your friends and family would reasonably conclude that it's quite normal to feel that way. Although your reaction might match the symptoms of depression, a traumatic event precipitated them and your state of anxiety would not be diagnosed as clinical depression. Clearly, a new and better job would probably end the negative feelings in an instant.

http://www.alaskanorthernlights.com
In Homer, Alaska ...
we live with extremes of both sunshine and darkness.
Our winters provide us with a natural testing ground for using light boxes. Sunlight serves to keep our body's internal "circadian" clock in sync, so we are alert and awake in the day, and ready to sleep at night. Our health, mood and behavior can be affected when the quality and quantity of sunlight is lessened. A direct consequence can be Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), winter depression, or sleep disorders. Light therapy has now been used and accepted for over 25 years. No matter where you live studies still show that light therapy boxes are the most effective treatment for SAD and SubSAD. That's why we at Alaska Northern Lights build but one light box - the North Star 10,000. We have chosen to stay with what truly works. No gimmicks or new gadgets to increase sales. Instead we strive to keep our price as low as possible, because light therapy boxes are our only business. Our brightness level of 10,000 lux at two feet makes our light effective, easy to use and safe No harmful UV rays . Proof is that our return rate is less than 1%.

What is SAD? SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder) is a type of winter depression that affects an estimated half a million people every Winter between September and April, in particular during December, January and February. It is caused by a biochemical imbalance in the hypothalamus due to the shortening of daylight hours and the lack of sunlight in winter. For many people SAD is a seriously disabling illness, preventing them from functioning normally without continuous medical treatment. For others, it is a mild but debilitating condition causing discomfort but not severe suffering. We call this subsyndromal SAD or 'winter blues.'

Most people find they eat and sleep slightly more in winter and dislike the dark mornings and short days.

Sufferers have to endure most of the following:
Sleep problems - oversleeping but not refreshed, cannot get out of bed, needing a nap in the afternoon Overeating - carbohydrate craving leading to weight gain Depression, despair, misery, guilt, anxiety
