Yes! I think while living up north I had a tinge of it...though not to an extreme. My daughter has it as well as several friends of mine. I have 2 friends who bought the special lamp to sit under (you do it for a certain lenght of time). One friend built a house facing South with LOTS of windows to get more natural light.

I had never thought about it before someone pointed out to me that passive solar homes that were a rage back in the 70's and 80's didn't work as well in the northern states as in the winter the sun is generally under clouds much of the time. I took note and she was correct in this. Days are short and grey thus making folks a bit "blue".
