What is it with this extreme heat and anxiety?
« on: August 09, 2022, 07:43:21 PM »

Does anyone else feel a wreck with the heat panicking that you can’t cope with it etc when normally anxiety not off scale like this. Bought air con units couple years ago and would not be without them. We going Alton towers Sunday and I’m getting myself in pickle as will be hot by night and that I won’t be very well.
Last month I ended up on steroids cos asthma went to pot because of the heat.

I can relate. I really panic and worry when it is hot. I feel stressed thinking how I will get through the day and how I will manage to sleep. It is wonderful you have air con. That must really help. I can understand why you are worried about going to Alton Towers. Do you think once you get there, it will be worth it?

I am sure their will be air conditioning but you could always call to double check if it is working in the room you have booked? I do not really know how I cope. I have lots of showers and lie down. Sorry, I know that is no help.

4 me it's that the heat uses up energy that I don't maintain  =  anxiety surges  :'(.  I try to eat B4 my body needs a boost as well as keeping hydrated.

I always hear people say they go off food in the heat or just eat salad. I see I am not alone as I just want to eat more!

I do that too. It is annoying. Maybe after a break of bananas you will be able to eat them again.

Over ripe bananas make me gag. I keep buying bananas and they are fine but just a day later they are speckled. I cannot eat them like that as it makes me feel sick. My partner keeps making banana bread.  ;D

Oh do not worry, we never throw away food. You can have some but you will have to make the butter yourself.  ;D
