Discombubulated (Experiment)

Hi All,


Homebird mentioned the weather in her recent thread. This post is to do with low pressure. Which is very (although not unseasonably) low at the moment.


I experience quite extreme feelings and moods (sometimes body pain) on days when the air pressure drops though late autumn and winter. The last week has been really hard. I know a lot of people experience migraines. I just wondered whether anyone else felt discombobulated when the weather is like this.


I’d like anyone the the uk with ASD to conduct a short experiment on themself if you are in the UK from this evening 6pm until this Thursday eve if you can please tell me how you feel as there is a big low pressure drop happening. The pressure is going to be dropping heavilly from 1000bar on Sunday evening to 975 bar (very low) on Thursday night. Some people may be seriously affected by this drop. Please record and changes during this time. 


I'm interested to know if other autistic people become extra sensitive, or irritable, or tired, hungry, or depressed? All observations relevant.

Thank you

  • Today feels different to me. I've been feeling like I'm walking through a metaphorical fog cloud all day. The only way I can describe it is that horrible feeling you get when you get to the bottom of the steps at an underground station, let alone when a dam tube goes past! (not that I've been on the underground in over 10yrs but you don't forget that feeling). Extra sensitive yes. If its going to rain, rain and get on with it. Interested to read the thoughts of others during this timeframe.
