Guest guest Posted June 17, 2003 Report Share Posted June 17, 2003 So, I've always known that I felt better in the summer. I never attributed it to increased hormonal levels...but I've read that Testosterone levels are highest in June and July. I'm thinking if you tested me in June and again in December, the change would be dramatic. Probably down at least 50% in December. Why don't doc's make this connection...why don't they get it. Or perhaps they do, and don't want to admit(treat) it. Jerry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 18, 2003 Report Share Posted June 18, 2003 Jerry, It could be longer days and increased light to your brain....this is a well known phemenon. Certain species of animals going into " heat " is triggered by light. The thought that depressed individuals are more prone to suicide over Christmas holidays is a myth. According to my psychiatrist....they don't have the energy then...but as days get longer in spring...suicide rate goes up. OR eon Seasonal change??
