Don't Be Sad highlights case studies of sufferers and details the latest treatment techniques including dawn simulation and other forms of light therapy, medication, diet, exercise and general lifestyle changes. It also discusses self-assessment, defines the disorder, explains its causes and details the symptoms. Plus, sufferers get current listings of clinics, practitioners and support groups for SAD.

Read accounts of how others have conquered their SADness.

Benefit from useful tips on lifestyle changes, diet, exercises, light therapy and SAD information sources.
