Agitated in this skin

So down here in the land of Aus, we are having a particularly nasty heatwave (in my part of the country anyway.. its a big country)

we have the air-con on full tilt and it isnt making a difference. its so humid, ive been swimming and having cold baths and nothing can free me from this opressive heat. Many of you know that i have Seasonal Mood Disorder and that summer is my trigger season. im agitated out of my mind. i cannot get comfortable. i have a slightly higher core body temperature as a part of my immune deficiency problems- i ALSO am still unwell and have spiked a fever.

im so uncomfortable, my nerves are screaming for some relief. its beyond hot. its like breathing soggy, wet hot air. my lungs hurt. i have a grinding headache that is being exacerbated by this heat.

after having a vent and a whine, i realise that i should be counting my blessings- comfy bed, food in tummy, roof over head, freedom of speech etc.

Sorry- the heat is honestly messing with my extremely frazzled nerves. im so wound up, on edge. heatwave has been going for about a week, forecast is for at least another 5 days. i cannot get comfortable. i cannot sleep. im running on empty.

Hello Maz,

I am sorry that nasty warm humid heat is kicking your butt.

As sick as you are and have been for so long now I am glad you are giving yourself  permission to vent anytime...............I will read it and I know sometimes just writing it down is a huge help.  Just letting us know how awful you are feeling helps.

You have my support and hugs, gentle cool hugs..........

Luvs ya my dear friend and awesome lady.

Dear L.A.S.

It is no wonder you feel so frazled with all the stuff that has hit you like a ton of bricks my friend. Like I just told out dear Kitt, you are another that gives a lot of herself and you just vent all you want! You are so wonderful and are still counting your blessings while feeling so miserable. I hope you will get yourself to a hospital if you don't start feeling better. I could not imagine a heat wave right now, the woodstove made me have an anxiety attack the first night it was lit because of the heat, so I kinda know what you mean there. I wish I could send you a ticket to the Northern Hemisphere for awhile until you got better. My love and prayers are with you :)

Please take care of you and know your family is here for you anytime :)

Your Bro Sam I Am :)
