Have you been feeling more tired lately? Maybe less motivated, more withdrawn, or just off as the days get shorter?
You’re not alone — and it’s not in your head.

What you’re feeling could be Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) — a type of depression that happens when daylight decreases during the colder months. Less sunlight can shift our internal rhythms, impact mood, and make it harder to feel motivated or balanced.

Here are a few ways to care for yourself through the season:
☀️ Get outside during daylight hours (even a short walk helps)
💬 Stay connected — talk to friends, family, or a therapist
🛁 Keep a steady routine and try to get enough rest
🥗 Nourish your body and move gently
🤍 Be patient with yourself — slower seasons are still seasons of growth

Seasonal depression is real, and support is here if you need it.
Your light is still here — even when the days feel dark.

You don’t have to navigate this season alone. Learn more at thinkhappylivehealthy.com.
