Feeling Worse When It's Cold and Dark? You're Not Alone in the Central Valley
Seasonal Affective Disorder is real, and it can pile onto stress you're already carrying. Days getting shorter can make everything feel heavier — and if you're already juggling housing worries, mental health struggles, or trying to stay clean, that seasonal shift can knock you down hard.
