It is still hot (200/365)

I discovered via Twitter last night that SSRIs and SNRIs (e.g. sertraline, citalopram, duloxetine, fluoxetine, mirtazipine) make you more prone to overheating and dehydration. Though I'm not sure I liked hot weather any better when I wasn't taking citalopram.

I am very tempted to say sod it and wear shorts to the office tomorrow. And also trying to work out if I can fit in a swim somewhere...

I actually have had comments on the hairiness of my legs at work, but only from six year olds. Who are just fine with "Yes, they are hairy. That's because I choose not to remove the hair".

A couple of years ago I managed to persuade my brain that it wouldn't matter if people saw my legs as they are. And now it really doesn't matter. But getting to that point took decades - and no amount of being told it would be fine by others helped.

I hope you find an option that allows you to be comfortable without attracting the attention of the brain weasels.

I decided that it's hot enough I don't care, and shorts and a button-up shirt looks perfectly professional.
