Seasonal affective disorder, also known as SAD, is something that affects both Carolyn and me in those cold dark months of the year. So it surprised us to find out that SAD starts setting in even before Halloween. In today’s episode we talk about what to look for if you think you’re suffering from SAD, including one early symptom that most people miss. Plus, find out what you can start doing now to improve how you feel in the upcoming months.
