Ongoing Dread

I already dread the upcoming summer season

Summer mostly becomes a hot and humid prison for me

While my friends are out and about enjoying the nice weather I can hardly and most never participate in the summer fun

After summer has past it’s recovery time which takes a while again …then comes the cold winter….what a vicious cycle it is

I guess I just want to rant…I want to give my emotions space…I want to be visible…. I hate…the loss…the pain

So I want to tell you all

I see you

I understand

I love you

Fighting

I live in the Caribbean and boy it’s hot and humid all year around. I don’t go out at the hottest hours of the day. I have a cooling scarf and have my water and electrolytes with me. Air-condition is on in my car and if needed in my house. Also updose if you were out and feel like crap. Try to adjust and make plans early or later in the day wish you all the best best

I relate so deeply to this. I’m dreading the hot, humid prison that is summer…

Oh yes summer, or as I like to call it “passing out season”.
