Something For Everybody

In this solo episode, I discuss seasonal depression, also known as seasonal affective disorder (SAD). I explain the biological and emotional aspects of this condition, emphasizing that it is not merely a case of feeling sad during the winter months. The episode covers the impact of seasonal changes on mood, the importance of understanding the emotional experience of seasonal depression, and how it affects relationships.
