Confident
I'm 16 & diagnosed with PTSD & Bipolar I. This past year I've noticed my mood is increasingly linked to the weather. When it's sunny out, I'm in a great mood & I have close to zero symptoms, just some mild anxiety that is manageable. Yesterday the weather was crappy & overcast. I was having flashbacks, serious avoidance & I was so depressed I could hardly get out of bed.
Also, since I can remember my anxiety level is extremely heightened during the summer, & usually lesser during the winter.
Seasonal Affective Disorder runs in my family. Is that something that can be onset at a certain age? Or do you always have it? Does it affect PTSD symptoms?
