How To Cure Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD)?
Have you ever noticed how you feel more energetic, out of bed and active, more in summers as compared to winters? How a rainy day makes us feel a bit down and sunny days make us feel more cheerful.

The shortening of days in winters relates to a specific type of depression known as the Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD). Winter blues take over when a person is not exposed to sunlight more, since days become shorter than the longer days of summers.
This disorder usually starts developing during the fall season and remains until the end of winters. The symptoms are directly proportional with the increase in winters and shorter days.
