Feeling hot on SSRIs

Posted by KXo on November 10, 2003, at 12:23:29

Zoloft makes it for me. I feel hot and sweat much more than if I was not taking the med. And where I live it is common to be more than 30 C hot all the year. But I am OK with it. Most times it doesn´t bother me, but I am also interested to know how it works in the body and how are people dealing with it.
About the emotional blunting, I fell much more emotions with Zoloft than not taking it.

> Does Celexa make any of you really HOT?? I'm so glad that it's not summer now because I'd probably drop from heat stroke! <smile> I don't get the night sweats anymore, but I sure am hot in and out of bed. Maybe I'll be able to wear t-shirts in the snow this year! Has anyone found any remedies for this heat?

> People also speak about finding their emotions are blunted while on anti-depressants. I have not found this to happen yet. In fact, I'm looking forward to the blunting as I'm hoping with less intense emotions, that there will be less brain distractions and I'll be able to focus better. How long before this emotional blunting occurs? I almost feel like a cat with its claws out....I would like to have less active emotions for a time.
