What are your favorite cold weather hobbies? Staying busy during the cold months can help with the winter blues. 🩵

Seasonal Affective Disorder, more commonly known as “Seasonal depression” affects up to 10% of the population every year. It’s most common in the fall and winter months when the daylight hours are shorter, but others can be affected in the summer too.

While SAD subsides for most people in the spring and summer, it’s important to take it just as seriously as major depressive disorder. Have you been noticing any of these symptoms from your loved ones lately?

As we roll deeper into the cold season, this is your reminder that it is OKAY to not be okay. Accepting that you or your child might not be okay is the first step to getting the right treatment. ❤️‍🩹
