Having a literal melt down

Hello

I'm sure everyone is going through this. 

Today I got so anxious about the heatwave that I didn't know what to do with myself. 

Spent so much time trying to logically figure out how to escape the heat that I got really upset and even hotter. 

I just can't function in this heat. It's so disregulating. 

Previously I've tried a number of different fans, a very expensive loud air conditioning unit, staying in a hotel with ac (very expensive). I don't think it's possible to escape the heat unfortunately.

How do you manage? Do you have any tips? 

Any suggestions greatly appreciated

  • Fill a hot water bottle with cold water and keep it in the freezer until bedtime.

    I haven’t used this method yet but will be trying it out this evening, along with a wet sheet draped over my body. I tried a wet towel a few days ago, but I couldn’t manage the sensation of it on my body.
