Seasonal Depression

Courtesy WFUV News

Spring is  here, and for most of us that’s probably a breath of fresh air.  There’s not only a change in the temperature but a change in people’s moods.  Most of us have heard about the winter blues, but do you know where the saying comes from?  Every year, millions of Americans suffer from mild to severe cases of the winter blues, a condition known as seasonal affective disorder, or what’s commonly referred to as SAD.

Fordham Conversations Host Katie Fisher is joined by Fordham Professor of Chemistry Dr. Joan Roberts. They discuss the cause of  seasonal affective disorder and the powerful impact light has on health. Listen here.
