You’re not the only one feeling the effects of the time change!
UNBSJ psychology professor Dr. Michael Bradley tells CHSJ news you’re mood could go up and, more often than not, down. The biggest difference is a change in judgement and alertness. Bradley says there’s evidence during both the fall and spring time changes that car and household accidents go up.
Bradley says there’s not too much you can do to fight these side effects, except to be more careful and wait until you’re back to normal in 3-5 days.
Bradley finishes by saying anything that throws off your schedule will most likely bring you down slightly, rather than pick you up.
