Answer 4

No, SAD is not a real disorder.

It is incredibly easy to look outside and associate your pain with the grey sky and rain. It is even easier to allow yourself to feel what your un- and subconscious feel when the conditions outside are typically connected to being unhappy. This requires a bit of psychoanalytic background but the bottom line is that the well-informed know that SAD is about as accurate a diagnosis as ADD/ADHD. There is ALWAYS something underneath.

Answer 5

I think it's mostly psychological. If you are brought up to believe coudy days are gloomy, then you're going to think you should feel gloomy.

I love cloudy days. And a thunderstorm can put me in the best mood. Hot sunny days are the worst, I won't even go outside.

Consider Eskimos and other people that live where there is six months a year with very little sun.

Discussions of vitimin deficiencies and other factors can play a roll in depression, but are off topic from what you are asking about - just the effects of light versus dark. That is psycholog On cloudy/rainy days, I wake up feeling pretty lousy before I even open the blinds to know what the weather is like outside. I don't think it's psychological, because I don't know what the weather is before I feel that way, but I also don't think it has to do with it being darker (it's different than SAD which is due to shortening daylengths), again because I have no way to tell it's darker until I open my blinds. In my case, at least, I think it has to do with the changes in pressure associated with the storm systems moving in (I'll also start to feel headachy/hazy a few hours before a storm comes in, and even while the storm is still ongoing, will already start feeling better). Most people around me have reported similar symptoms on the same days.

Answer 6

Yes, I am personally affected by the weather. I prefer slightly cloudy skies and strong breeze. This weather puts me instantly in a good mood. I can think clearly, and I am full of enthusiasm. If it is dry and sunny, I feel drained. In general, I like cool weather, but not cold.

The scientific reason might be that each person will like the kind of weather in which he/she was born in. I was born in September, and in India, that is the monsoon season. So I like cloudy skies and breeze. Whereas my mother was born in April, so she prefers clear skies, and dislikes overcast days.

Hope this helped!
