I think Arizona has a reverse version of seasonal affective disorder.

When temperatures break 90, lots of people start feeling like shit.

I think you'd have something there if the hypothesized cause of SAD was temperature, but based on the literature I've read its actually something to do with light levels. Thats why one of the primary treatment methods for SAD is phototherapy.

However, if I was not a Psych Major and therefore wasn't taking your post quite so literally my first response would have been to say that you have an interesting point there.
