Heat and Anxiety

[Carnation]

There's no doubt that the heatwave is causing more anxiety and I thought it might be helpful to have a thread for people struggling and also any tips to stay cool.

So my tip is to keep a cold damp flannel to use on the back of your neck and forehead or wet wipes if on the move.

I know it's not very British to say it, but the weather's vile, isn't it?

BlueIris, this country is not equipped for this heat despite year after year of climbing temperatures. :(

It really is, I so much prefer colder months! Hate feeling hot and flustered, just seems to make everything harder to deal with.

absolutely does...I used to have huge heat anxiety a few years ago every summer here in london in the heatwave days...but now with age im getting better and doesnt feel as intense..I still feel that it doesnt help though and it gets in the way of doing most things normally, luckily for us it doesnt last long otherwise we would just have to get used to and live with it

The heat and me don't mix at all I always miss the sun and heat during the colder months but once the heat comes around its the start of another anixety round of its own kind. Sleep seems impossible
