Getting over the Cold Days of winter
December 9, 2008
Winter is here and many people just can’t handle the changes they need to make in their daily routines. The days get shorter and the lights go out way to soon. Seasonal affective disorder affects way to many of us and it causes depression which can lead to too many suicides during the visit from old man winter.
Also known as SAD it is something that will hit you the same time every year and will last until the flowers bloom and the birds start to sing in the springtime. Most people are unaware that they even have this disorder until a multitude of symptoms start to occur and then they seek a doctors help.
One or a combination of symptoms such as taking afternoon naps when you once were active all day, all of a sudden your joints are achy, your stomach starts to hurt and even gaining too much weight are some of the signs. You may also find that being able to concentrate on anything takes extra effort, bouts of anxiety or you are always cranky or maybe all of a sudden you have a craving for sweets and pastas.
All of the above are just some of the symptoms of SAD. You could have just one of them which make it a little more difficult to diagnose but generally you will have a few of them. It is not known exactly what causes this to happen, maybe it is lack of sunlight or you bodies clock has changed and it is throwing you off, it is not sure.
The older you get the less likely you are to having SAD, but women are more likely to get it before men. They are emotional creatures to begin with. If you work indoors or work at night and sleep all day you can also be at risk for this disease since you have lack of sunlight.
You can treat this by sunlight therapy, changing your diet and even getting outside more often. If you feel that you are at risk, pay a visit to the doctor and you will be able to get back on track fast and easy.
