I don't know why, but it seems like the brightness and heat will never end. I've heard it called SSAD. Apparently, like SAD, it has to do with the amount of sunlight and the sun's relation to the earth. I actually get the most depressed in the summer.

And this is a bad time of year - lack of sunlight really doesn't help. Interestingly, many sufferers I have spoken to also get really down in Spring. Some say that when the weather is improving - people generally seem happier and that makes them feel even worse. I just read a great novel which covered mental health issues. It is The Almost Moon by Alice Sebold. Great post Mrs M – many sufferers don’t have friends or family who understand, so they don’t get the help they need.
