According to the Danish Psychiatric Central Research Register, changing from standard to daylight savings time and then back again can affect one's mental health. Bobcat Update's Vanessa Gerlich looked into this phenomenon and found that symptoms include disturbed sleep, cardiovascular irregularities and an increased tendency for fatal accidents. Here's Vanessa's report:

For those having trouble adjusting to the biannual time changes, you're not alone.

Clinical social worker Carol White says it's very common for patients to take anti-depressants or vitamin supplements to cope with seasonal adjustments.
