Tackling Winter Blues and COVID-19: Peerstar's Recovery Roundtable Insights

I believe that it has kind of pushed them into that quote unquote: seasonal affective disorder during the pandemic time period. And I'm sure other people are feeling the same way too.
Feeling the weight of winter combined with the stress of a pandemic? Peerstar's Recovery Roundtable kicks off its series by diving into Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) and the added challenges brought on by COVID-19. Hosts Jess and Dave break down how SAD, a type of depression that follows seasonal patterns, is affecting more people than usual due to pandemic restrictions.
They share practical tips on recognizing symptoms, supporting friends and family, and creating daily wellness routines to combat the winter blues. Jess, who has a wealth of experience in mental health, offers valuable advice on tracking symptoms and setting up action plans. This episode is packed with actionable insights and compassionate advice, making it a must-listen for anyone struggling with SAD or looking to support someone who is.
