> I haven't been feeling very well lately: in the last two weeks, i've been over-eating, sleepin too much and doing my job done and homework it's more difficult then usual; i also lack of energy and i'm kind of sad at times. I feel desperate/pessimistic also. I'm currently on a TCA (amytryptiline, a compound similar to imipramine); I started it a couple of months ago, switching from Prozac. Didn't have any side-effects and quitting Prozac wasn't a problem.
> The worsening of the mood coincided with the hot weather, so i thought the weather was to blame.
> But the last week i had a awful PMS period, plus i felt very sad and desperate. Are you guys feeling this way also with the hot wetaher? I'd need a feed-back on that, so i'll get my medication fixed.(hope so, 'cause i'm really worried right now).

> Anna LauraI feel the same! I also take amytryptiline (150mg). The warmer it gets, the brighter the sun shines gives me some kind of desperate feeling. But somehow I think it might not be the temperature or medication. Its almost like a confrontation with my unability to enjoy the fine weather and do what others use to do when the weather is fine (go swimming and so on). When the weather is awful, I have an excuse for sitting in my cave all time.
