If the winter months leave you feeling pretty low then maybe you’re suffering with something that around 2 million others in the UK are going through too. It’s called Seasonal Affective Disorder, or SAD. It’s a kind of depression linked to the change in seasons, and is thought to be caused by a lack of sunlight. So how do you know if you have it, and what can you actually do about it, seeing as you can’t change the weather?I’m Mary, and that’s what I’m exploring in this week's episode of Noted.I’ll be speaking to Dr. Norman Rosenthal - the man that coined the term Seasonal Affective Disorder back in 1984 - about what it is and how to spot it.I’ll also hear from 22 year old Libbigail Evans who was diagnosed with SAD, and get loads of advice from TikToker Jodie Rogers and The North Face explorer Ben Ankobiah about how they try and lift their moods at this time of year.And I wanna hear from you on this, do you have SAD? Even if you haven’t been diagnosed, but experience some of the symptoms of it, get in touch.

His objective was an accurate rendering of Mr. Bastiat's words and ideas into twentieth century, idiomatic English. A nineteenth century translation of The Law, made in 1853 in England by an unidentified contemporary of Mr. Bastiat, was of much value as a check against this translation. In addition, Dean Russell had his work reviewed by Bertrand de Jouvenel, the noted French economist, historian, and author who is also thoroughly familiar with the English language. While Mr. de Jouvenel offered many valuable corrections and suggestions, it should be clearly understood that Dr. Russell bears full responsibility for the translation.
