There many reasons that could explain why some people get depressed during the winter season. Some people may be less active and drawn indoors because of the cold, making them less social. Being isolated indoors may make people feel like they are left with little options. Also we are experiencing less comfort from being in a constant battle between warm and cold temperatures which can be physically and mentally exhausting. Financially, people are spending more money, going on vacations and spending on presents which can often stress many people out. The imagery of dead trees and little livelihood does not do much for pleasing our eyes. There is also a technical term for seasonal depression called Seasonal Affective Disorder, or SAD and is a mental disorder under depression.
