“But Finnish people are apparently desperate. Especially in Winter, when they get as little as four to six hours of Sun a day?” REALLY? You won’t get 4 to 6 hours of winter sunlight per day. That would be a lot, and there would be no SAD. Nordic countries typically get ZERO to 1 hour per day in winter. Actually, there may be 4 to 6 hours of DAYLIGHT, but with varying degrees of overcast.

This article gives us some clear information on how clever the author thinks he is. Depression and SAD are serious and debilitating conditions. Seasonally Affected Disorder can make you feel like you’ve been stuffed into a dark hole for 3 to 5 months out of the year. Considering how often it ends in suicide, there is little about it that is funny.
