During my sophomore year in high school I was feeling so unbelivably depressed and worthless. I know now that what I was feeling was the effects of Seasonal Affective Disorder(SAD), caused by the lack of sunlight I was getting during the dark winter months. As soon as winter hit I felt so hopeless, not knowing why I was so tired and sad and unmotivated all the time, it was a terrible experiecnce. In my psychology class I did a small research project on SAD and it was like the lightbulb went on and everything made sense. I understood what was happening in my brain and why I was feeling the way I was. I knew that there were treatments and options availible to me to help me to feel normal again. No one should have to suffer with SAD or any type
