Seasonal Affective Disorder
This guide is an introductory list to help locate research materials at the Rowland Medical Library. Seasonal affective disorder(SAD) is characterized by severe seasonal mood swings. With the approach of winter, sufferers experience symptoms such as social withdrawal, lethargy, oversleeping, carbohydrate cravings, overeating, weight gain, and loss of interest in sex. Geographic locations and decreased exposure to full-spectrum light could trigger this disorder. Genetic factors might also be involved. Researchers estimate the number of SAD cases in the United States at from 450,000 to 5,000,000.
