rant time. I live in the southern part of the US so winter doesn't actually exist here... haha.
But anyway,
The cold (i.e. 70 degrees Fahrenheit/ 21 degrees Celsius or cooler) makes me really really anxious. I don't know why, but it kicks off my derealization/depersonalization, and gives me really strange uncomfortable dejavu feelings nonstop. It bumps up my daily lightheadedness and dizziness as well.
There's a cold front here, and it's like I was able to predict it yesterday! Something changes in the air ..I don't know.
It's super distracting and nerve-wracking and makes me extremely anxious. Does anyone else get this way with certain stimuli or changes in weather? Is there anything you do to lessen it?
I feel like the cold reminds me of when i was at the bottom of the hole I created for myself 2 years ago, when my anxiety was off the charts, and my health anxiety consumed me. But why do I have to be reminded of this time every single fall/winter.......
My anxiety is absolutely a roller coaster as well. Some months it's not too bad and other months the sensations are way too much.
Sigh.
