stock shocks getting stiffer?

hey! to the people that lowered their civics with stock shocks... does your shocks get stiffer after getting the car hoisted up? cause my shocks are pretty dead now, and everytime i get it hoisted up it gets stiffer? why is that? is it because the shock fluid goes down or something?

my experience is opposite. everytime i hoist the car up, the shocks gets softer. but after some driving, it goes back to its original firmness.
i also noticed that the shocks gets firmer after driving. might be 'cos the oil gets heated up, and lost its fluency.
