I find the last 2 posts very interesting. I've noticed my anxiety isn't as bad when I have a cold.
I personally think it may be a cytokine mediated affect. The same neuroimmunological mechanisms that make you tired and ramps down various processes in your body (which is why you feel sleepy whne you have a cold) probably ramps down parts of the brain that cause depression and anxiety.
