For many, the changing seasons bring on a predictable pattern of depression. It’s more than just “winter blues”—it’s a clinical condition that can significantly impact your energy, mood, and daily life. Our providers at Televero can help you develop strategies to manage these seasonal shifts effectively.
Common Symptoms or Things to Look Out For:
- Depression that begins and ends during specific seasons
- Winter pattern: fatigue, hypersomnia, overeating, weight gain
- Increased craving for carbohydrates
- Social withdrawal or “hibernation” behavior
- Complete remission during other seasons (typically summer)
- Pattern must repeat for at least two years
