Do SSRI's make you hot natured? I don't mean hot flashes, I mean you're just hotter all the time.

I believe they do with me. Also, I weigh more than I used to....which adds to the hot-naturedness.

1. I get night sweats usually after missing a dose and restarting the medication...

the kind you feel as if someone threw a bucket at you. In rare instances I reach the low degree fever range... seriously.

I have been watching what I eat, because I get sudden cravings and am constantly hungry (but I have been told I am losing weight tho... perhaps due to me overcompensating).

Medications: A Commonly Overlooked Cause of Heat Intolerance

If you have heat sensitivity and you're on new medications, check with your doctor. Some drugs, particularly ones that are amphetamine based, can cause heat intolerance and sweating. Other medications that cause heat intolerance and easy sweating are drugs used to treat mood disorders such as anti-depressants and anti-psychotic drugs.
