Seasonal Depression SAD is a mood disorder characterized by depression that occurs at the same time every year.
Seasonal affective disorder occurs in climates where there is less sunlight at certain times of the year. Less sunlight and shorter days are thought to be linked to a chemical change in the brain and may be part of the cause of SAD.
