Anyone else hot all the time..

[GizmoIsSoFluffy]

And if so, what did you do to help yourself.

Constantly warm for the past few years. The hot summer hasn't helped, but I'm still warm. Wear summer clothes most of the year and didn't even venture into Winter PJs last year.

I'm on Sertraline, I've heard it can make you hot. Would coming off it help?

I just don't know how to cool down.

I suffer too. Is sertraline anti depressant/anxiety meds? I’m on venlaflaxine and was told that that can cause being hot all the time. I’m constantly in thin T-shirts and drinking iced drinks. It’s really miserable.

Yes. In my case it's because I had a hysterectomy and then had to go off HRT
Small hand fan
only cotton and linen clothes
lots of cool drinks and yoghurt

No, I am bloody freezing all the time!

I am in London and take the Tube, which only makes it worse. This week better though.

I was on escitalopram for ptsd and it made me boiling hot all the time. I decided to control things with meditation instead of drugs and I feel much better now.
Im on hrt as well.

Wearing my oodie at the moment, so no!
Shouldn't you be on HRT if it's menopause related?

HRT doesn't suit everyone, though well worth trying.

Yes! And I'm ten years post-meno, so doubt it's that... can't take HRT... I have some autoimmune things and now arthritis, wonder if it's to do with that? But it's very uncomfortable, isn't it? In this heatwave, I've been positively distressed by it...

Thank you everyone. Yes, sertraline are anti anxiety meds. I'm on quite a high dose, so doubt that's helping. Last time I tried to come off it I failed 😢

Can you take HRT?

It gets so daft that I'm wearing strappy tops at work during the winter and everyone looks at me like I'm a 2 headed monster! Nope, I'm just hot.

Sertraline is an SSRI that makes you hot. Don’t consider coming off it, it’s essential for your MH.

Just try to keep cool, fans, cooling pillows etc. Don’t worry about what others think, just do whatever makes you comfortable x

I'm on Letrozole for BC treatment. Fuck, most of the time I feel like I'm being cremated 🥵🤣
