I found out that our bodies need at least an hour or two of sunlight for us two for us to prevent the Seasonal Affective Disorder, which answers my question "Is there a treatment or prevention for us not to get the Seasonal Affective Disorder?" Jennifer Veitch a enviromental psycohologist and a researcher officer at the National Research Council Canada in Ottawa says "Getting some bright light exposure during the day can actually help our circadian rhythms so that we sleep better." This quote gave me an excellent look on how the weather will change us.

I found out that the weather was the main cause of mood changing. looking through mayo clinic i found a disorder called SAD. SAD is a Seasonal Affective Disorder that affects mostly women and children's mood due to the changing of the seasons and weather. SAD is mostly affective to people who live in the northern regions of the world. If i were to classify this project i would set it at a moderate and challenging task because everything had to be posted at a certain date. I didnt like how everything had to be posted so close to together. If i had to do this project again i would choose a topic that was even more intresting than the one i had did for this project.

Reflection: It all comes to an end

At the beginning i wanted to see if the time of day will affect a person's mood and how they act. As i researched my topic i found out that the weather has more of an impact on the person's mood than the time of day. Progressing through many of my different sources i found out about the disorder called SAD(Seasonal Affective Disorder). SAD is when a person's mood change due to the weather and the changing of the seasons. The sources i have used to find these intresting infromation were MSN Heatlth, ABC News, Discuss Resource Library, and Psyhc Central. Theses sources were the most helpful in helping me research this intresting topic. The sources were very trustworthy and were proven to be safe sites to collect infromation from.

According to statistics provided by the American Academy of Family Physicians, as many as six of every 100 people in the United States have winter depression or Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD). Another 10% to 20% may experience some mild form of SAD. I have also found that SAD is mostly found in women more than men, although it is also found in some children and teenagers. SAD usually doesnt show until at least 20 years of age and decreases as you progress to get older. SAD is most common to people who live in northern geographic regions.
