Here's another thought. I have terrible seasonal allergies; have  had them since I was an infant.


I was started on medication VERY early, as the allergies interfered with my ability to eat.


The medications cause depression and anxiety! Especially older style antihistamines such as Benadryl, and any of the decongestants.


I use Benadryl, and with me, it causes anxiety along with depression. I've tried the newer, non-drowsy antihistamines, and in addition to not being any too effective, they make me jittery.


The decongestants available on the shelf cause more anxiety and jitters than the ones you have to get from the pharmacist.
