Zephyr, I have never been diagnosed with SAD, but I have general anxiety and deal with several of the "symptoms" for lack of a better word, of SAD. I took Lexapro (an SSRI) for a year due to depression, and it really seemed to help my anxiety, which was a pleasant side effect since thats not what it was prescribed for. Anti depressants do have side effects, you really just have to weigh the pros and cons to see if they are worth it for you. You can always try them for awhile and see if you like it. Good luck!
