'Spring asthenia' - or spring fatigue or springtime lethargy - can be a thing for some people
Usually, we think of the arrival of spring as something that will make us feel happier and healthier. But sometimes, even when the days are starting to get warmer and brighter, the new season instead seems to bring a wave of low energy and a dip in mood.
However, it's important to note that changes in mood and energy that seem to occur at certain times of the year could also be signs of seasonal affective disorder , a form of depression which the NHS states can sometimes affect people in the summer as well as in winter. "Some theories suggest the lengthening days and increased light exposure in spring may disrupt circadian rhythms and melatonin production in certain individuals, triggering depressive symptoms," Dr Sharma adds. "Others hypothesise that allergies or sudden temperature changes common during seasonal transitions could play a role."According to Dr Sharma, depression symptoms will be similar to those people might experience at any time of year.
But if you're experiencing symptoms that could be the onset of summer depression, it's important to seek support. As with other types of depression, a combination of therapies is often most effective.
