Have you ever experienced seasonal affective disorder or S.A.D.? For those that have and do, the winter months can be a challenging time. Now, add a lockdown with extended periods of isolation for some and there is concern we could be heading into a mental health crisis in the coming months. So, who is better to speak to that than the person who literally coined the term S.A.D. and whose scientific research in this area has helped us better understand it and more importantly, how to best mitigate the detrimental effects of S.A.D.? Dr. Norman E. Rosenthal joins Peter and Richard to help us find ways to deal with some of the challenging times ahead.
