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?

  • I went for a walk this morning and the breeze was lovely. I had wondered if I needed a cardigan. The night was cooler too. Not for long as it is sticky again. I am fed up with it and anticipating it could be like this until we get rain on Sunday or Monday. The actual summer season hasn't even arrived. It is so hard to decide what to do when so hot. I use a watering can in the garden to conserve the water but now ready for a break and some wet days.
