It's like they are gaslighting you Becca, shouldn't 'pain' be what the patient says it is? Confused

LoafofSellotape · 08/08/2019 13:00

25 here today and I feel really headachey as what at a friend's yesterday and we all sat in her conservatory as 'it was so lovely and bright!'

Today I'm indoors and infront of the fan!

28 here today, 33 tomorrow. Someone on AIBU says they just saw a Christmas decoration in the shops and everyone's up in arms. I bloody love it. I'm already planning my Christmas cakes.

LoafofSellotape · 08/08/2019 13:53

33,where are you,not in the UK?Shock

Becca19962014 · 08/08/2019 14:33

loaf it should but then these are the people who upon hearing of my life threatening medical phobia manipulated me into appointments with them as well over many weeks (as in took weeks for me to consent to one appointment) saying I could trust them to help and support with issues being raised from going who turned round immediately after and told me to go with friends/family/pay for worker as its not their job and phobias are silly little feelings people let get out of control and I need to try harder with the mindfulness. Worsening the phobia which was already severe massively. They're now claiming that's all due to my failure to engage in offers of support. Uh no it's because they tricked me!

Becca19962014 · 08/08/2019 14:34

Over 25 here.

Supposedly we'll be getting lots of rain this weekend ... Which was supposed to begin mid afternoon today.

Lying little buggers.

Nah, south Germany, but I'm from Scotland. I'm not made for these temperatures! It's nice being able to take the kids to the open air swimming pool the whole time (nice for them, anyway) but it's a long old bloody summer.

LoafofSellotape · 08/08/2019 15:42

Urghhh I feel for you. Try and concentrate on the wonderful Xmas market ... not long now!

I saw a friend the other day who had just come back from Germany and she said how hot it had been.

Sun's gone in and we have cloud!

lololove · 09/08/2019 09:15

Thunderstorm at the moment, absolutely peeing it down. Loooove Star it's instantly cooled the air.

LoafofSellotape · 09/08/2019 09:22

It was so hot last night,urghhhh! Rained like crazy but made no difference to the temperature.

Very windy ATM but muggy as hell, a good storm would be great.

Becca19962014 · 09/08/2019 09:58

Rained a lot here too last night but it's already hotter today than midday yesterday.

ITS SUPPOSED TO BE A MAX OF 18c AND GETTING COOLER.

Already over 20c (realfeel of 23c). I should have got up really early as need to get food but stupidly believed the forecast.

Ffs.

Becca19962014 · 09/08/2019 10:03

Looking on accuweather only one day has been close to what was predicted, the others have all been 23/24 (which would be lower than where I am and isn't the real feel temp).

Ten days ago August had maximum temps of 19.

Next week is between 14 and 18 all week then supposedly over 20 after. However, been looking in diary and it said the same thing for this week.

I'm actually sat here crying. I've complicated letters I must get done and no way to get them done as I feel so fucking ill. No one (except you lovely folks) actually understand how bad the weather is making me feel or how low. Monday is the anniversary of a close family members suicide (caused by my family abandoning them in a care home and refusing to visit whilst lying to me that they did) and I'm already really feeling that pushing me down.

HAD ENOUGH NOW. WEATHER JUST FUCK THE FUCK OFF!!!!!!

LoafofSellotape · 09/08/2019 10:05

This time last year was 36 degrees 6 days straight,I'm grateful it's not that hot again. Dear God,it was dire!

Becca19962014 · 09/08/2019 10:28

The thing is here it's showing that the temp was 20c with one or two blips last year, but my equipment was showing almost 28c frequently. It's much hotter than its showing as here right now. Just been out and taken the temperature. 26c and that's not taking into account humidity which is dreadful here today.

It's been much worse here this year than last Sad

Becca19962014 · 09/08/2019 10:30

Currently were supposedly having a massive downpour (as in weather alert downpour) instead we have blazing sun and horrendous humidity instead!

Becca19962014 · 09/08/2019 10:30

I keep walking through dead leaves - but not because of Autumn but because of heat.

LoafofSellotape · 09/08/2019 10:40

We do too Becca- so warm this morning!

DrCoconut · 09/08/2019 11:24

You'd all have loved it at my hard to heat house on Wednesday evening. It was so cold I needed my thick dressing gown on. Where is everyone living that it's so hot all the time? .

Becca19962014 · 09/08/2019 13:23

I'm in rural Wales.

Can't make its sodding mind up here today. Sunny. Cloudy. Spitting with rain, downpour, blazing sun again Confused.

Had a difficult time getting food as the shops have decided to put their fucking heating on. Heating!!!

Got home to find out my appointment on suicide anniversary has to be cancelled as another patient needs the slot more than me. They wonder why I can't trust them.

Becca19962014 · 09/08/2019 13:28

All the rain that supposedly happened in shop dried up by the time I left!

CatherineOfAragonsPrayerBook · 09/08/2019 22:57

Raining tonight!Smile

Hope it carries till morning

Massive rain for 5 mins only,so muggy though and super windy.

CatherineOfAragonsPrayerBook · 09/08/2019 23:34

Ohhh I'd love a good breeze tomorrow!

LoafofSellotape · 10/08/2019 09:37

Blowing a gale but still muggy,how is that even possible? I feel so headachey and sticky!

CatherineOfAragonsPrayerBook · 10/08/2019 09:43

You tell me. I don't get it. I've had to change into something far more flimsy. This morning it looked really promising - windy, wet - it was bucketing down. I put a sleeved dress on, but then as it approaced 8:30am took it off again. The sun is streaming through the window and I started to feel queasy working at the desk as it was just beaming a d I was heating up. I can't marry up what I'm seeing through the window with how it actually feels!
