It’s that time again…
The days are growing cooler. The leaves are falling. The pumpkin-spice-everything is all around.
But you just feel blah.
While many of us recognize the mild form of “blues” we feel during the fall and winter seasons, some experience seasonal affective disorder (SAD), commonly called seasonal depression.

(You guessed it, Minnesotans: That means us.)
So, the next time you catch yourself daydreaming fondly of warmer times, pay attention to what you miss most about summer. The answers may hold the key to finding the right self-care strategies for you:

Medication.
Some people prefer not to incorporate it into their care plan. (And that’s just fine!)
For others, medication can be a helpful piece of the puzzle.
Well-managed medication can enable you to engage more fully in therapy, self-care, and all the other activities that make up your story.
Some people find that they benefit from consistent medication management over time.

It’s all about what’s right for you.
