About this episode

If your anxiety feels worse in the summer...you're not imagining it.


In this episode of The Anxiety Dr podcast, Dr. Lisa breaks down the 3 H's that can silently trigger symptoms that mimic anxiety: Heat, Hydration, and Histamine.


From racing heart and dizziness to brain fog and restlessness, summer can place extra stress on the nervous system - and many people mistake these physical responses as "getting worse".


Dr. Lisa also discusses the growing trend of women using antihistamines like Allegra dnd Pepcid to help with symptoms related to PMDD, anxiety and brain fog, including the possible connection between histamine and the nervous system.
