In More Latin We want to explain the reason for the time change. Every year, the change to Daylight Saving Time can be a sudden adjustment. Experts say this change can affect emotional well-being, as sunlight influences mental health.

For many, the time change marks the end of winter and the arrival of spring. Aidan Fitzpatrick, a local resident, shared that the winter weather and lack of sunshine left him feeling down. The time change, with its increased sunlight, is a relief.

Lack of light in winter can lead to seasonal depression, with symptoms similar to those of common depression, according to Dr. Alexandra Gold, a psychologist at Harvard University. She recommends maintaining a consistent routine to ease the transition. This is especially helpful for those who struggle with it.

Daylight Saving Time disrupts your daily rhythm. With a little planning and attention to your mental health, you can minimize its effects and still enjoy your daily routine.
