10 Common Mood Disorders
Mood Disorder #7: Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD)
Many of us will find that our mood will improve when our favorite time of year comes around. This is mostly because we like the sunshine, making us happier when the summer finally comes around again. Such moods swings are just mild and general, though, but some people will find it much worse.
Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) is a condition that typically causes depression when the summer is over. The patient can suffer from depression throughout autumn and winter until the spring arrives again. A smaller group of patients can find that the symptoms begin in summer or even in late spring.
