[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I hate it hate it hate it. I get Seasonal Affective Disorder starting about mid-July and it lasts until the end of September. Depression combined with heat-induced lethargy is just the absolute worst. I am dreading it.[/quote]

Wait, what? Serious question: you can get seasonal affective disorder in the summer? I thought that was sun related?[/quote]

No, they made that up. SAD happens in winter when there is less daylight. They were trying to be. Snarky.[/quote]

It is a thing. Not common but legit.

“ In rare instances, some individuals experience SAD in the summer. If individuals feel unusually down, tired, or anxious during the summer, they should check with their doctor to see if they have summer SAD. Medical treatment, counseling, and lifestyle changes can make living with summer SAD easier.”

I find summer to be stifling. I hate the heat and direct sun. I keep the blinds shut to keep the house cooler so it can be a very isolating time for me. [/quote]

Yes, I am the original SAD poster. I've been diagnosed with it by my doctor. It's legit because... wait for it.... it's seasonal! Comes and goes like clockwork. Exact same symptoms as winter SAD (lethargy, weight gain, depression, oversleeping, loss of interest in activities).
