项目摘要

Picture the scene. It's one we can all identity with, at some level: late October. The clocks have gone back. The mornings are colder and certainly looking darker. Light itself feels like a precious and endangered thing. A shift is underway. Marked by a downturn in energy and mood, it's tougher to get up for work, feels harder to think clearly, or to muster much in the way of enthusiasm. During the worst spells, there's an unmistakable feeling of sinking ...Feelings associated with the changing seasons, and moods that seem to be governed by the nature of the weather overhead and related qualities of natural light, are a phenomenon known to us all. Seasonal affective disorder (SAD) is an intensified form of this lived experience that, for considerable numbers of people in the UK, can be debilitating and limiting, resulting in emotional challenges, lowered mood, and feelings of anxiety. This research project enters the lived experience of SAD, seeking to examine its occurrence and impacts in individuals' life-worlds. Working closely with people who self-identify as experiencing depression on a SAD spectrum, the research team will develop narrative, creative and therapeutic-educational resources more fully to examine and reflect SAD experiences, and to build a self-help programme to be hosted by the NHS-approved website, 'Living Life to the Full', to which over 40,000 people register annually. The programme will offer a range of well-being interventions to mitigate against negative experiences of lightness-darkness and changing seasons, in both urban and rural environments.The research team combines differing skills and approaches, suited to interdisciplinary practice and public engagement. It is comprised of cultural geographers and a creative arts-health practitioner, jointly working with a cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) expert. By focusing attention on SAD as a widely experienced, but poorly understood, affective phenomenon, the research project will have considerable public impact, initiating national conversations about addressing questions of how to live well through altered seasonal patterns and envisaging the sorts of adaptive life skills and cultural tools required for the mental health challenges now associated with global climate change. A network of project partnerships held with national-level organisations will leverage our finding to create meaningful 'national conversations' on mental health, sustainability and climate resilience in the public sector. Our partners - an expert advisory group - will ensure strategic input to the project, and have already helped us identify clear pathways to generate research impact. In future times, we all might be at risk of feeling SAD in relation to changing climate conditions (stormier weather and smoke-filled darker skies) and this project offers targeted resources to help mitigate these affects, as well as offering guided ways to increase creative and embodied connections between people and outdoor environments.

想象一下这一幕。在某种程度上，我们都能认同这一点：10月下旬。时钟已经往回拨了。早晨更冷，当然看起来也更暗了。光本身就感觉像是一种珍贵而濒危的东西。一种转变正在发生。以精力和情绪低迷为标志，起床上班变得更加困难，更难清晰地思考，也更难调动起太多的热情。在最糟糕的时期，有一种明确无误的下沉感觉……与季节变化有关的感觉，以及似乎受头顶上的天气性质和相关自然光性质支配的情绪，是我们都知道的现象。季节性情感障碍(SAD)是这种生活经历的一种强化形式，对相当多的英国人来说，这种经历可能会使人虚弱和受限，导致情绪挑战、情绪低落和焦虑情绪。本研究项目进入SAD的生活体验，试图考察它的发生及其在个人生活世界中的影响。该研究团队将与那些自认为患有抑郁症的人密切合作，开发更全面的叙事、创意和治疗教育资源，以检查和反映SAD的经历，并建立一个自助计划，该计划将由NHS批准的网站“充分生活”主办，每年有超过4万人注册。该方案将提供一系列健康干预措施，以减轻城市和农村环境中明暗和季节变化的负面体验。研究小组结合了不同的技能和方法，适合跨学科实践和公众参与。它由文化地理学家和一名创造性的艺术健康从业者组成，与认知行为疗法(CBT)专家共同工作。通过将注意力集中在SAD这一广泛经历但鲜为人知的情感现象上，该研究项目将产生相当大的公共影响，启动关于如何通过改变的季节模式过上良好生活的问题的全国性对话，并设想目前与全球气候变化相关的心理健康挑战所需的各种适应性生活技能和文化工具。与国家级组织建立的项目伙伴关系网络将利用我们的发现，就公共部门的心理健康、可持续性和气候适应能力创建有意义的“国家对话”。我们的合作伙伴--一个专家咨询小组--将确保对该项目的战略投入，并已经帮助我们确定了产生研究影响的明确途径。在未来，我们都可能面临因气候条件变化(暴风雨天气和烟雾弥漫的黑暗天空)而感到悲伤的风险，该项目提供了有针对性的资源来帮助减轻这些影响，并提供了指导方法，以增加人与户外环境之间的创造性和具体化的联系。
