Seasonal Depression: It’s Not You, It’s The Weather

by

In this PSA, an older sister explains to her younger sister why she feels too tired and “down” to go to the movies. The film teaches viewers about Seasonal Affective Disorder and the biological impact of losing sunlight during the winter months. It highlights that these feelings are a medical condition called “SAD” rather than a personal choice. Viewers are given three simple steps to improve their mood, including using light therapy and staying active. The message reminds everyone that it isn’t their fault, it is just the weather.
