Summary

Still Panicking: This week we look back at some of Stevie and Tessa's top tips for getting through the winter months.

Feeling down when the nights get darker? Tessa realised she has SAD - Seasonal Affective Disorder - a few years ago and, while Stevie doesn’t, they’ve both done a lot of intense googling, so take a look at whether light boxes work, going outside is really the key and how Tessa can stop crying all the time when it’s dark.
