Fallout from recent heatwave

Morganeee

Hello Everyone,

I was wondering if anyone else is currently dealing with the consequences of last week's heatwave? It's been really hard for me, in terms of intense stress from how unusual the situation was, worrying for my loved ones and people suffering the most from the extreme heat, and also because of the sensory overload it created. I felt in a near-meltdown state for a few days and really irritable.

I've noticed I've been inexplicably really tired and struggling to focus on my work this week, although temperatures are now lower and comfortable. I was wondering if some of you are also dealing with this.

  • Yes. It definitely has a bad impact on me. I was only working on the Monday and Tuesday as had booked leave in the hope of going somewhere to walk. Instead I did very little. It felt much worse than brief heatwaves of previous years and hard to get over. I felt like the exhaustion I was previously getting over returned including the symptoms and definitely sensory extremes.
