People with seasonal affective disorder (SAD) develop depression each winter. When spring arrives, the symptoms of depression settle down. Light therapy (sitting in front of a special bright light for a time each day) is an effective treatment in many cases. Other options for treatment are the same as for other types of depression - for example, antidepressant medication and cognitive behavioural therapy.
