Hi

I live down in Devon where the heat and humidity is horrendous at the moment. We had terrific storms last night and I hoped it would clear the air but its worse this morning.

Always feel like I can't get enough breath in and am dizzy and clammy all the time which is making my anxiety horrendous.

Find myself looking at the weather forecast all the time praying for some clear air !

Does anyone else feel like this ?

Love N Light

I think many of us do, me included.

I suppose we just have to brave the storm so to speak...

Take plenty of water and shade. My PC generates extra heat and it doesn't help being situated upstairs either.

Take care,

I was just logging on to the forum to ask the same question. I am really struggling at the moment. Yesterday I lay with a wet flannel on my forehead in the afternoon. To-day I don't feel much better. My husband has just gone to buy me an electric fan to see if that helps.

50 something so hormones not helping. Feel quite tearful to-day.

I must be in minority as I like the heat and it is just about right for me. I would be at the beach if I could stop feeling anxious long enough to leave my flat [Duh!].

Hope the fan helps a bit.

Hi Katie

I know how you feel - I really hate the heat and humidity. I got to bed last night and it was so hot. I could feel the anxiety building up and I had to really fight to keep it under control.

I spend most of the summer indoors with the fan on. I find that damping myself down with cold water helps.

Roll on autumn

Hi Katie,
I totally agree, I do like warm spring weather but hot humid weather causes hovoc with my anxiety.
I start work at 2pm today in a DVD shop, working under hot lights with nothing but a fan to move the warm air around. Im dreading it.
Please, let us have some nice cool rain!!

Take care

I love the heat but after a while it makes me breathless and feeling faint.
maybe a fan would help along with plenty of fluids.

Take care

Hi

I too ended up on the sofa last night as it was far too hot and over indulgence from bbq.

We've been out to a Steam Rally today and we were all niggly at each other as it was far too hot for the little one and the eldest son was in a wingey mood, and OH was getting stressed over them too - which he could have done with out.

Phew - is it like this tomorrow too?

Yes I also hate the humidity, It wasn't really that sunny here today but it was really warm and humid, I found it hard to get a breath to be honest, Luckly I have an inhaler which helps a bit, cooling down nicely now but

Thank-god i'm not the only one!!! I can't stand this humidity, It was lovely last week, it was sunny but plesant and not with this horrible humidity! I've been dizzy for two days now and feel completely detached from everything around me. I can't wait for it to cool down.
i'm such a moan but this just isn't enjoyable one bit!![Sigh...]

I'm lucky, hubby got an air conditioning unit and that's in the lounge, it is bearable in there but upstairs is way too hot! Got a fan that helps, I hate humidity. I may just have to resort to sitting and driving in the car all the time with the sir con on just to keep cool.

Take care

Hi Katie.

I so understand how you feel. I hate it to.

I've been sleeping with the fan on in my bedroom all night. I woke up last night and I turned the fan of cause i thought i'd be ok. I felt like I couldn't breath. I was so panicky. Was horrid.

It's not much better in Devon tonight huh!

Take Care,

Love Pip's X X X X

Hi Guys
I saw England on Tv last night and it looks like you guys are really suffering.
Hope it doesn't mean we're gonna get another hot one down here.
The Xmas before last we had 44 here and I sat in front of the air conditioner hoping the power held up

Yes, the heat bothers me too. I've been much more anxious and tense and it does make me feel like I can't get enough air to breathe. It's also making me feel sooo tired.

I do like it to be sunny and warm, it's just too much though at the moment.
