Summer depression

Elfilis

Bit more of a rant post but I just wanted to voice my feelings of summer. 

I struggle with all the high temperatures, if I open the windows I end up with bugs and insects in my place (can’t even get rid of wasps and so scared of them), I also end up hearing people screaming and shouting, loud car engines and people honking their horns just for the sake of it and it also stinks of smoke which makes me feel unwell! If I have my windows closed I’m slowly being cooked alive but even with the window open there isn’t any breeze, even if a night. I can never sleep or get comfortable either and if I do get to sleep I wake up multiple times in the night. When going out I feel I have to cover up because I’m an eyesore compared to everyone else and people seem to be so rude and arrogant. Plus everyone seems to have nice high end cars and stuff compared to what me and my parents have. In fact I don’t even know how to drive so I don’t have a car. Having work and renovations isn’t helping either and not to mention how rude they have been to me and mistreated my place. Plus I feel we have been ripped off. I also can’t do any exercise due to the heat but I keep thinking what’s the point anyway as I’m not worth it. 

I'm meant to be going on holiday next month but I’ll be honest I’m dreading the airports and flight! I’m also dreading what people will think of me when they see me. I never used to be like this but since my bullying and harassment at the workplace I can’t help but think I’m a poor thrump. He’s been very manipulative this bully and I am triggered all the time but I seem to struggle more in summer which leads to meltdowns and depression! I’m also crying when I see myself in any sort of reflection because of how awful I look. 

Does anyone relate to what I’m saying?

  • I think I have finally accepted that I just don't like summer, there will be the odd day where the heat is bearable and there's a breeze and I like it but for the majority of the summer I'm miserable, to quote Mark from Peep Show: 

    But seriously, the heat in the UK is just awful the majority of the time, I get sweaty, I get uncomfortable, my clothes feel uncomfortable, it's too bright, it's too difficult to sleep because it's hot but I also don't like the fan blowing on me!

    But, I'm telling myself - we've nearly done it, it's September on Monday, the temperature is going to come down, the leaves are going to change colour, we're almost there!

    Omg you are like exactly the same as me when it comes to summer as well! I find I am either too hot but if I have the fan on I can get some what chilly but if I have so much as a thin blanket on me I sweat like crazy, plus all the fans I have do is just blow hot air and then dry my eyes out! Seriously can’t wait for September, we need autumn so badly if you ask me!
