 Seasonal affective disorder, or SAD, is class as a mood disorder associated with the changing of seasons. SAD is a seasonal affective disorder, so if students don't know from this time of year what the season changes, some students may guess it's kind of form of depression. So it's into the depression due to season changes, due to the cold, the lack of light. It's usually around winter. Any student could be affected by it. And there's a recent study done in America that was one in 20 students are actually fully benched. We're fully down with SAD. Seasonal affective disorder, and I think a lot of students don't know what it is, especially students who have it because they won't realise why they're feeling down. If you notice in the front, it takes SAD seriously. Act sooner rather than later. Simple things such as add more light into your house because often it's due to the lack of light in the surrounding area. Maybe invest in some sort of alarm system that turns off 30 minutes after you fall asleep and turns on 30 minutes before you wake up in the morning. So you're waking up to light, so you might be happier. We ask students if they experience an affect, and what they think of the change of season. So it's not about seasons, but it's more about a new lifestyle or something like that. It happens. Yeah, I do. Loads get cold and just no motivation to do work. So yeah, it's sad, isn't it? No, I like winter. Enjoying it, man. I've got the scarf out, I've got my winter sheik. I'm pretty happy with how things are going, not sad at all. But I don't really find much of a difference between summer and winter in terms of the SAD concepts. Although, some students found a bright side to the seasonal change. Nice, it's dark. Nah, there's less light. You can't do any activities, football is over for the year. It is a depressing time of the year. I started drinking earlier because it's dark out earlier.
