In reply to Springtime Depression Tree Pollen Allergies, posted by jrbecker76 on April 25, 2014, at 22:37:29
I am allergic to "everything" (trees, grasses, dust mites, molds, crab, lobster) and I definitely see a connection between times of the year when I am tolerating a higher than usual "allergic load."
One happy thing for me is that Benadryl (diphenhydramine) does not make me sleepy. Perhaps this is because I've been taking it practically since I was born. So I am able to beat back the allergies with 50 mg Benadryl three times a day. That's much more effective than those second-generation things such as Allegra, Zyrtec, or Claritin, in my experience anyway.
