The Hot is on its way

It's going to be getting hot and I'm dreading it, I feel so listless and ill in hot weather and thats anything over about 23.C, maybe 25.C at a stretch if we got a good breeze, but today its muggy and overcast, even with a breeze.

I don't want to ruin the other thread about summer with my complaining, but it's my worst time of year, the neighbours are being noisy, I can hear them and thier music even though the doors and windows are shut, there are herds of tourists so there are few places I can safely walk Fearn.

I get terrible water retention in hot weather and feel bloated all the time, I sweat buckets and feel thirsty, but also bloated with the amount of fluid I have to drink, I think my blood pressure crashes as I don't seem to be able to get cool, or get rid of the sweat and I feel dizzy much of the time, sometimes it gets so bad that I can't eat, I once went for 5 days without eating, I just couldn't swallow anything solid, I sometimes have to force myself to drink. I've been to the doctors, they've run loads of tests and can't find anything wrong. I think it's summer SAD, but theres almost nothing about this anywhere except one psychiatrist who believes its depression! Well Duh, of course I get depressed, I'm ill and I don't know why, I get shouted and complained at because I can't do the things most others enjoy and I'm just being "miserable and attention seeking" and then people wonder why I avoid others?

  • Sorry to read about your health issues relating to the heat. I am the opposite as I have Raynards and recent bike rides have left me struggling to hold my door key and shivering until I got warmed up. I love the warm weather and being able to ride out without all those layers on. I brought a cool mat to sleep on and they do make it bearable to sleep. Like you, I have issues with noisy neighbors so that is a downside.
