Season suffering
A long time ago when people lived mostly out-of-doors, they were close to nature. They noticed that plants, animals, insects and birds sensed the weather changes sooner than people did. So when ancient people saw animals looking for shelter, they did, too. Nowadays people can suffer from weather conditions. Some people are very sensitive to humidity. People who have arthritis are, in a sense, “living hydrometers”. Many older people say, “It’s going to rain. I can feel it in my bones”. Few people in northern countries enjoy the long, dark nights and cold temperatures of winter. They may feel ill. They suffer from Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) or the winter blues. These become depressed as the days become shorter but recover rapidly in spring. The symptoms can be very serious. They include sleeping more than usual but never feeling rested, melancholy, weight gain and lack of energy. The further you live from the equator, the more likely you are to be affected by SAD. It is believed that up to 20% of the population of northern countries suffers from SAD and that 5% are chronic cases.
