The first SAD studies were originally conducted in Finland, and if I recall correctly they were brought on by studies into why Finland is one of the leading nations in annual suicides year in and year out even though according to international barometers Finland is one of the best countries for a person to live in.

At times during the winter months the sun may show itself for about an hour or hour and a half - if there isn't any cloud cover - and that brief period of sunlight is usually spend at work or at school etc, so people don't really see the sun except maybe through a window. It can be very depressing and if there's no snow covering the ground: it's like living inside of a sack.
The reverse side of it is that during the summer there's a period when the sun never sets, so it's light outside 24/7. That's when Finns drink themselves stupid and drown themselves in the almost 200.000 lakes we have. So, maybe the sunlight isn't the only reason for us being so self-destructive.


I just realized that I steered this thread about beautiful women into a discussion about depression and suicides... there's definitely something wrong with me!
Thanks...I think you are right-on about that.

Fortunately, I have returned to my roots on the MS Gulf Coast. All of my anxieties and depressions have gone away...and I'm gaining a little weight. Probably from all the Barq's in the bottle (has to be ice cold to be good) and roast beef and shrimp (one of the hardest decisions in the world to make) po-boys from Li'l Ray's.
strato and strato like this.
