I was wondering if anyone could tell me anything about treatment for Seasonal Affective Disorder?
I know there is a range of medication you can take but I'm not sure of the pros and cons or possible side-affects.
Anyone help?

I took that medicene, since I dont have SAD then maybe the side affects would be different. But when I took it, it took away my appetite, so I did lose a few lbs, I guess that could be a good thing. Other than that I didnt get any side effects, but it smells really BAD, a high sulfur content. I had to stop taking it because of that.

Im on zoloft, so far no side effects except a little blurry vision and the loss of appetite.

I don't think I feel comfortable telling you about something a professional is much more entitled to do. I'll send you a link.
