The thing is, the more common form of seasonal affective disorder (henceforth abbreviated to SAD, to save time) is winter-based depression. However, some people find they suffer in the summer. (If they suffer all year round, clinical depression is probably more likely the cause).
And, no, because the clocks change at the end of October so the change is usually felt toward the end of autumn (though I think this could be referred to as 'onset of winter' by approximation). The horrible affect may lift around Easter time, when the spring comes around.
from Wikipedia:
People that experience Reverse SAD (spring and summer depression) show symptoms of insomnia, anxiety, irritability, decreased appetite, weight loss, and an increased sex drive.[Wikipedia:Citation_needed] RSAD can also manifest depression, which makes it difficult to diagnose this rare affliction.

Seasonal affective disorder.
Season depression is another name for seasonal affective disorder (SAD). An effective treatment for SAD is called light therapy. There are two types of light therapy, bright light treatment and dawn stimulation. Along with the therapy treatment, an antidepressent is usually prescribed.
As far as I know, seasonal affective disorder only affects people during the winter, not the summer. Summer is not a depressing season. Even if you are depressed in the summer, it is not because of the summer weather, it's for some other reason.
That is the correct spelling of the adjective "seasonal" (according to the season, or weather).

SEASON! or SEASONAL!
As the winter months set in across the Northern Hemisphere, thousands of people must deal with a subset of depression known as Seasonal Affective Disorder. This disorder is often referred to by its all-too-appropriate acronym. SAD sufferers may feel listless, depressed or unusually emotional throughout the winter months. Scientists believe that the season's short hours of sunlight and long, cold nights can create subtle malfunctions in the biological clocks of people who suffer from SAD.What Causes Seasonal Affective Disorder?The so-called "biological clock" refers to the complex interplay of hormones in the body and brain that tells humans when to wake up and when to sleep. Usually, these hormones are attuned to the presence of natural light; humans rise in the morning when the sun is up and fall asleep after dark. Disturbances like jetlag or insomnia can occur when these bodily cues no longer match up with the rising and setting of the sun. In the winter, shorter days make people want to sleep more. Some people cannot adjust to this lack of natural light without becoming cranky and irritable; their bodies tell them that they need to sleep, but their work schedules do not accommodate long mornings spent dozing in bed. In some people, these hormonal fluctuations are severe enough to cause lethargy and depression.Can Seasonal Affective Disorder be Cured?While there is no easy cure for SAD, there are treatments that can reduce or prevent listlessness and depression during the winter. Many companies produce lamps for depression caused by Seasonal Affective Disorder. These lamps are compatible with bright light bulbs that can produce "full spectrum" light. This means that the light that is generated by these bulbs can effectively mimic the full range of visible light produced by the sun. Full spectrum lights can trick a SAD sufferer's brain into producing the proper chemicals required for a functional biological clock.These lights are most effective in the morning. Because many SAD sufferers have to rise before the sun, these bright lamps can mimic the feeling of natural sunlight in the morning. Some people who are vulnerable to Seasonal Affective Disorder choose to supplement this light therapy with oral doses of Vitamin D. This combination of full spectrum light and Vitamin D can reduce or eliminate moodiness and depression in the winter months.
