In Alaska's long, dark winter is there more SAD than in other parts of the c!


Question: I know sunshine really helps to feel good, plus you get out more when it is sunny and warmer than a place like Alaska. Are there any people from Alaska or other places where sunshine is rare in winter on here who could answer my question?

Actually, yes. Vitamin D deficiency can lead to depression. Guess what a major source of Vitamin D is?

Sunlight.

I didn't think it was any worse than Seattle where it rains all the time. I did get cabin fever but only from the cold long winter not the dark.
