not exactly. believe it or not, this time of the year is often the most challenging time emotionally for a lot of people. here to talk about spring and its association with worsening mental illness is psychiatrist dr. joshua winer. we appreciate you coming in today. >> my pleasure. >> this seems counterintuitive, you think most people would say improving weather improves your mood but you say not exactly. >> a lot of people associate lower mood with the wintertime, the wintertime blues, more light, better weather, you feel better, no. not the case. in fact, what we know is that they've been tracking suicide rates, april and may are consistently the months that have the highest suicide rates and actually the lowest months are the winter months, november and december so it's the opposite of the myth that exists and what is interesting is it's not just in the north northern hemisphere. in the southern hemisphere their version of spring is also the time with the highest rates of suicide. >> is there a theory behind this destabilization that comes with this time of year? >> we don't know for sure but the theories are a couple things. number one, maybe it has to do with increased exposure to light. although increased light exposure helps many people with their mood there are a subset of people where it can cause destabilizing, particularly for people with bipolar disorder. the other thing is you lose an hour of sleep so that hour of sleep even though you think okay, it's just an hour, that can mess some people up and the final thing and the one i find most intriguing is the tlier i we know that in the case of depression, at least, your immune system being activated, having inflammation in your body, is a trigger for people to be prone to developing depression. when your body as inflammation there's a release of something called cytokines and those are proteins that have been linked to depression so when people have allergies they're getting a release of the cytokines and that may cause the low mood. >> do you see these issues in your practice? do people come to you saying "i need help with -- everybody else is happy and i'm not"? >> absolutely. it's unbelievable. as a quick example, i have an emergency phone that i always have on me, inprobably average maybe one emergency call every couple weeks to a month. over the last month or two i've been averaging one a day. and i've talked to a couple colleagues and they're seeing the same thing in their practice. that's anecdotal, but there's no doubt that i see this. every spring but for whatever reason this particular spring has been a rough one. >> you talk about this idea that allergies might be a contributing factor. what advice do you have for people who have that feeling or thought? >> so if that's the case, you can certainly talk to your doctor, find out if it's okay for you to taken a over-the-counter allergy medication, zyrtec, allegra, claritin. make sure you're washing your pillow cases and your hair so you're not sleeping in all the pollen that might be aggravating things and if you do have a relationship with a psychiatrist or doctor and you notice that every springtime you start to have these problems, you want to be proactive for the upcoming year so i have some patients who every march i know that they'll start having problems in the upcoming months and make adjustments to their medications to help prevent that. >> all right, some good advice. dr. joshua weiner, we appreciate. >> it my pleasure. she's being hailed a hero for saving her great grandmother. hear this little girl's incredible story whenews 4 rich at mgm national harbor?
