I've had issues with that throughout my life, and it is ALWAYS at its worst in the autumn. Plus, after months and months of sunny days where I live, a general gloom has set in here. Cloudy and dark, but with no rain. I think if it rained, I'd be a little happier. I like rain, and especially its sound. At least in New Jersey it does rain a good amount, though sometimes too much. I am now also living at a higher degree latitude. I'm at 49.2 (almost the same as Vancouver, British Columbia) instead of 40.3 (similar to Naples, Italy) where I used to live. Maybe that's a factor?
I can relate to that. The fall allergens blowing around. For the last few days I wake up with a headache on my left side of the head right where sinuses cavity is. But once I’m up, sitting up it slowly goes away. I was just wondering this morning about taking Benadryl at night as a precaution? Also we just turned the heat on recently, when I lived in Texas I had an AC almost year round.
