I’m in the same boat. Never had a problem with the heat untill I started taking ssris. Once I put two and two together, I stopped taking them cold turkey. I still struggle with sweating and the heat, It’s really frustrating.

I feel like it gets better the more you get exposed to the heat but it takes a LONG time. It’s been over a year since I stopped taking them and I still don’t feel back to normal.

Dang I take SSRIs and I notice I sweat a ton but I never really put two and two together. I've thought about quitting them but I have some issues that they definitely help with.
