In this episode, we dive into Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), a form of depression that many experience, particularly during the winter months. This condition can bring on low moods, irritability, fatigue, and changes in sleep or appetite due to decreased sunlight and shorter days. For those affected, SAD often leads to a feeling of "hibernation," where energy levels drop, and motivation wanes.

The consequences of SAD are not limited to mood; they can also extend to sexual health. Depression and fatigue can significantly impact libido, lowering sexual interest and activity. It’s common for men to experience a decline in libido or even erectile dysfunction as energy and mood diminish. Furthermore, SAD doesn’t just affect individuals—it can impact relationships too. Partners may notice changes in sexual routine or emotional responsiveness, and this shift can strain intimacy.
