Fox on family. After the holidays, the winter blues can set in; hard to stay upbeat, when it's so cold, and dark: "Because there is less sunlight, most of the time you feel tired because it's 5 o'clock in the evening, but it looks like it's 10 o'clock at night. There is this discordance."
Family physician and father Dr. Isaac Alexis says children aren't immune. So resist the urge to hibernate: "I get my kids out to at least 20 minutes-30 minutes of walking with me each day. It helps their mood to improve." If it's too cold to explore the forest or a local park, maybe a museum, or exercise the brain with a jigsaw puzzle.
But parents should watch for signs of more serious issues: "Not talking as much. You see decreased appetite. You may see them crying more frequently than usual." Or not wanting to play with friends.
But if it's just winter weighing them down, Dr. Alexis also recommends balanced meals with good protein and vitamin C, the kinds of things we should do all year round.
With Fox on Family, I'm Lisa Brady.

已为人父的家庭医生Isaac Alexis称,冬季忧郁症即便孩子也未能幸免 。所以,大家要战胜冬眠的欲望:“我每天都会带孩子出去活动至少20-30分钟,这有助于调节他们的情绪 。”
如果天气天冷,不适合去树林或是附近的公园,去个博物馆或是玩会儿拼图游戏,锻炼锻炼大脑也是不错的 。
但家长们也要注意比冬季忧郁症更严重的讯号:“少言寡语 。食欲不振,也可能是哭闹次数增加 。”又或者不想和朋友一起玩 。
但如果只是冬季忧郁症的问题,Alexis则建议家长们注意饮食均衡,保证丰富的蛋白质和维C之类一年四季都应该注意的问题 。
