Understanding Seasonal Depression and How The Oxford Center Can Help

As the seasons change, many people notice a shift in their mood and energy levels. For some, these changes are minor, but for others, they may signal a deeper challenge: Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD). Often referred to as seasonal depression, SAD is a form of depression triggered by seasonal changes, most commonly in the fall and winter months. At The Oxford Center, we understand the impact this can have on daily life and are here to offer hope and support through cutting-edge treatments tailored to your needs.

What is Seasonal Affective Disorder?

Seasonal Affective Disorder is a type of depression that recurs with seasonal changes. Its symptoms can range from low energy and difficulty concentrating to feelings of sadness, withdrawal, and disrupted sleep. While the exact causes aren’t fully understood, SAD is often linked to reduced sunlight, which can affect the body’s internal clock and serotonin levels.
