Coping With Seasonal Changes in Mood

Feel different as the seasons shift? Here’s how to care for your mental health through seasonal changes—even in sunny Queensland.

Even though we enjoy more sunshine on the Gold Coast than many parts of Australia, changes in season can still affect mood, energy, and motivation.

You might notice:

• Feeling more tired or flat

• Difficulty sleeping

• Increased anxiety or sadness

These changes are common. Our bodies and minds are sensitive to rhythm, light, and change.

Try:

• Getting morning sun exposure

• Staying connected socially

• Maintaining regular sleep and meals

If low mood lingers, therapy can help explore underlying factors and support your return to balance.

You don’t have to wait for brighter days. Let’s take the first step today.
