Expert Seasonal Depression treatment in Kota at Affinity Hospital. Confidential psychiatric care by Dr. Neena Vijayvargiya. Book a consultation — 24/7 emergency support available.
Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) is a type of depression that comes and goes with the seasons — often worsening during winter months when days are shorter and there is less sunlight. In India, it can also be triggered by the long, hot summers or monsoon isolation.
The main cause is disruption of the body's internal clock (circadian rhythm) due to changes in sunlight. This affects the production of serotonin (mood chemical) and melatonin (sleep hormone). People who spend most time indoors or work night shifts are more vulnerable.
In Kota, students who stay locked in rooms studying for months can develop this — it is important to get natural light and outdoor time daily.
If you notice your mood consistently dropping during a particular time of year, and this has happened 2 or more years in a row — please consult us. Seasonal depression is highly treatable.
Don't just "wait for the season to pass." We can help you feel better now, regardless of the season.
