Hello,
Seasonal Affective Disorder can be treated with the usual anti-depressants that are used for other depressive disorders. Where the usual anti-depressants don't work, thyroid hormones are also known to help. Photo-therapy (light therapy) is also known to be effective, especially with winter onset depression. Psychotherapy can help improve depression in the long run.
A combination of these methods is usually employed, based on a person's symptoms. The treatment is usually customized for individual needs.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Ivan R. Rommstein, General Surgeon
