Brief Answer:
Psychiatrist

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for your query.

Yes, based on your symptoms Seasonal affective disorder (SAD) can be considered a possible diagnosis.

You may have to consult a Psychiatrist for the same. Accupuncture or any sort of alternative medicine may not be of much help.

You can try meditation and yoga. They can show good response.

Hope, I answered your query.

Wish you good health.
