Treatment centres can be vital during the winter months as winter depression can set in, causing struggles and/or relapse. Thus therapy, medication, light therapy, vitamin supplements (such as Vitamin D), along with emphasizing outdoor activities and maintaining a healthy lifestyle, combined with family involvement (if possible) can be preventative measures to avoid decline. It is necessary to provide ongoing support and education, teaching coping skills to get through the Winter Blues in a healthy, non-destructive manner.
