Did you know that SSRI antidepressants like sertraline, fluoxetine, and citalopram can affect your body's ability to regulate temperature?
I certainly didn't. When I first started taking them, it wasn't much of an issue because it was still winter. But once the weather got warmer, I realized I had developed a serious heat intolerance that made me feel awful. I ENDED UP SUFFERING FROM HEAT EXHAUSTION AS SOON AS SUMMER STARTER!!
remember to stay hydrated and take care of yourselves during hot weather. 💕

¿sabían que los antidepresivos isrs como la sertralina, fluoxetina o el citalopram afectan la regulación de la temperatura? Pues yo no sabía, y cuando empecé a tomarla no hubo tanto problema porque era invierno aún, pero al cambiar el clima me encontré con una intolerancia al calor que me hacía ponerme mal. ME DIO UN GOLPE DE CALOR NADA MÁS EMPEZÓ VERANO. 🥴
Recuerden tomar agua y cuidarse de las altas temperaturas 💕

I actually didn’t know that! Thank u for sharing this, it’s really interesting and important information. I personally used to shake a lot while taking sertraline, and even though I’ve already stopped taking it, I still experience some trembling nowadays.
I’m sorry you had to go through heat exhaustion, that sounds really unpleasant. I hope you’re feeling better now and that the heat has become easier to handle. Please remember to stay hydrated and take care of yourself, especially during these hot days! (๑¯ω¯๑)
