What can be done for seasonal depression?

One option for seasonal depression is light therapy, which involves using a special lamp that produces 10,000 lux of light for 30 minutes a day. It is also important to get at least an hour of outdoor activity each day and try to be near natural light while working. If these strategies do not help, it is important to consult a doctor to rule out other conditions and receive appropriate treatment. Some studies suggest that taking vitamin D supplements may also be beneficial.
