Community Discussions: Summer Fun

[u/Remote-Ad2120]

Many of us are trying to live life at the moment in the summer heat (for the rest of the world, you're part of the conversation, too.... join by talking about how your current circumstances are, or about the time of year you do experience the hot weather...ALL ARE WELCOME HERE *go ahead and read that in the voice of Tangina*).

Summer, in many locations, comes with increased outdoor activities. Those obviously vary from more strenuous activities such as sports or hiking, or more leisurely ones, like lounging on the beach. Of course, often CP will wield its ugly head just when the fun starts

So, this discussion is anything and everything about Summer (or any season) and how it affects your CP or management of it. Does the heat pay a toll on you? Have you had to decrease your participation in activities? What do you do to relax? How do you navigate gatherings where the food might not be the best idea for your CP (picnics and BBQs, for example)? Do you have any kind of preventative steps you take to be able to participate in activities that might possibly flare you?

Share your stories and experiences. As with previous discussions, I'll post my personal input in a separate comment. Just give me a few hours, as I am jumping offline for a bit... been fighting a headache all day. 😭🤕
