Guest guest Posted June 8, 2007 Report Share Posted June 8, 2007 I feel more down in the summer. My boys want to go swim at gpa's house, and I rarely feel up to it. I hate not being able to feel well enough to join in on their fun. Hugs, Trista~~~~~~~~~~~And he said unto me, MY GRACE IS SUFFICIENT FOR THEE;FOR MY STRENGTH IS MADE PERFECT IN WEAKNESS.

Guest guest Posted June 8, 2007 Report Share Posted June 8, 2007 I love the Summer, but the heat tires me more and I hate the fact that I can't be outside during the day with my son. We have a pool but by the time I get him ready and me ready, I'm ready for a NAP!!! I guess you could say it's depression. I am diagnosed with chronic depression so really I'm depressed all the time, lol!!! Winter really gets me down, grey days, no life, snow, everyone hibernating in their homes and the cold!!!! I guess I'll have to start to like Spring and Fall the best!!! I hope you get to feeling better.

Guest guest Posted June 8, 2007 Report Share Posted June 8, 2007 Yes, ~ The heat does bring on the depression. I know it does in my case. It's mostly because the heat takes so many things away from me. It makes me down right lethargic. I move around like an old lady ( Not meant disrespectfully). My muscles get weak. My body aches, and if you thought I got migraines before.....whew! They are about daily now. And yes, I get very weepy. Just about everything brings me to tears. I've gotten to the point now, that I'm afraid to talk. Nothing comes out right. Yes, it may be funny to those who are listening to me, but what they don't know is, a lot of things I say, weren't meant to come out the way they did. Sometimes, I laugh with...sometimes, I fume. But, most of the time I want to cry. It's terrible when you have no control. And being a somewhat narcissitic(sp), and wanting things to always be done right, can leave me feeling like I've lost all control. I'm hear if you need to talk. Really...You have my number. Let's get through this together. What are friends for? Love and blessings...

Guest guest Posted June 8, 2007 Report Share Posted June 8, 2007 Yes, Val, being weepy is probably a better description. It takes me normally three minutes to get home from the tram stop. When it is hot, it takes me at least twice as long and before i get home, i several times feel the urge to cry. it gets better after a while at home, where it is not that hot, but as soon as i can smell the hot air, it starts coming back.RegardsVal Lee wrote: Yes, ~ The heat does bring on the depression.

Guest guest Posted June 8, 2007 Report Share Posted June 8, 2007 ~ If it is at all possible, try to stay out of the heat. And if you absolutely have to get out in it, make sure that you are wearing something light weight and loose. Wow! If you had one of those cooling vests or scarves, then now would be the time to utilize them. DH just called me a few minutes ago. I stepped out on the back porch to take his call. I was only out there for maybe five minutes. When I came back into the house, I could hardly breath. The heat literally sucked the breath right out of me. So, I know what you mean. Try to stay cool. Love ya loads...Val Depression form heat Hello all, the summer with hot days is hre and i wonder, does any of you react to hot wather with depressions?

Guest guest Posted June 8, 2007 Report Share Posted June 8, 2007 I don't think the heat makes me depressed. The heat zaps my energy, and that is what gets me depressed. I love the outdoors and not being able to be out in hot weather is upsetting. Working on putting screened in porch out back with fans so maybe I will still be able to enjoy summer without being so fatigued!

Guest guest Posted June 8, 2007 Report Share Posted June 8, 2007 Tammy~I think you hit the nail on the head. It is as though the heat just "cooks" us and withers our energy--at least that is how it feels to me. The sensation of wilting and losing energy, almost 'feels' like a form of depression--like getting sucked into a vortex of sorts where I get kinda floppy, legs heavy, eyes droopy (like right now! lol!)and there is a bad combo of depression, fatigue and lethargy all rolled into one yucky ball! I have to share that with my new recumbent trike--if you're interested in a peek at it: http://www.whizwheelz.com -mine is the Terra Trike--I catch a breeze as I peddle along. I do try, however, to pedal in the cool of the morning or as the sun as lower in the eve. bless ya all! and stay COOL ya'll~kate> I don't think the heat makes me depressed.

Guest guest Posted June 9, 2007 Report Share Posted June 9, 2007 I don't get depressed, I easily get sick to my stomach. I do not tolerate heat at all. I was told by a few Drs in the past 11 years to avoid being in the heat in any way possible because my MS makes me much more likely to die because exposure to the heat. Last year or the year before, a woman at a nursing home because of MS died because she had been in the sun too long a Coon www.farmfreshsoapsandcandles.com farmfresahsoapsandcandles@...

Guest guest Posted June 9, 2007 Report Share Posted June 9, 2007 Do you have AC to keep you cool? Where are you again? What's your temperatures where you are? If I get really hot for days on end it causes fatigue for me and then I sleep a lot. Are you on anti-depressants? If not you should talk to your doctor and let them know how you feel.

Guest guest Posted June 9, 2007 Report Share Posted June 9, 2007 a~ I heard about that. I was angry when I heard the story, because she should have been attended to. That to me, was a needless death. You know, I think she was close to my age. When I think about that, it scares me. I dread the day when I'll be put in a nursing home. Please, do stay out of the heat.

Hi Linn, My best tip for you Is take an ice cold shower and get your hair soaked before you leave the house into the heat. Also have an ice cold bottle of of water with you and sometimes I even bring some muscle-therapy ice packs. Good luck! a ( I also try to do my errands etc, in the early morning hours. ) > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 10, 2007 Report Share Posted June 10, 2007 That's a good idea. When I get overheated I will get in the shower with all my clothes on (summer dress) and get soaked. Then I just get out and sit in front of a fan. LOL Sharon "Happiness is not a destination.
