Winter symptoms?

Can anyone explain why my anxiety/depression symptoms seem to appear at this time of year, more so than any other. Not every year but perhaps every other year. I get the 'wobbliness' and weird headaches with neck and shoulder tension.Generally eases up over the next two or three months.

When its cold we shake sometime without knowing it and this can cause your body to tense up ! Mine does it i ache alot. Also the sun gives out natural happiness so alot of people feel more depressed this time of year

It could be Seasonal Affective Disorder - symptoms can vary each year. X

I believe I've had replies to my post, but am unable to access them,thank you for taking the time to help. I am inclined to think it may be SAD syndrome and I am getting a light therapy box tomorrow. Hoping you're right and this light therapy helps,I'll let you know. Thanks again. x

Started light therapy, am on day 4.with 2 sessions daily. Having an early session pre 8am, then again around midday. Possibly too early to say for certain if it's helping, (I'm not getting worse) I do feel more positive afterwards,but just the fact that you're doing something to help can be beneficial. I don't know how long before you should know,but I'll continue until something definite happens.

It's a week since I started the "light therapy", and I can say I honestly feel really well,much more positive and a renewed interest in day to day living.My sleep pattern is improving and I am amazed that it has worked so well.Have not felt fearful or anxious and for me it is an answer to my prayers.
