Seasonal affective disorder (SAD) is a form of depression that occurs at specific times of the year, most commonly during the autumn and winter months when daylight hours are shorter. Characterised by symptoms such as persistent sadness, fatigue and changes in appetite or sleep patterns, SAD is more than just the "winter blues." It is a clinically recognised but often underdiagnosed condition that can significantly impact an individual's quality of life. In this episode, Dr Roger Henderson looks at how to diagnose SAD as well as the causes, symptoms and treatment options in primary care.
