I don't know if it's common or not, but my
anxiety worses when it's either really hot
or way too cold.
Hope that helps a little,

Many anxiety sufferers are worse in the
heat, especially when humid and hot

Couldn't Live Without A/c Posted: 06-29-05 20:00pm
Is there any way you can reduce your
anxiety when you can't do anything about
the humidity?
I've been travelling a lot and I find the
weather gets to me when it's extremely hot
but there isn't much I can do. Any
suggestions as to what I can do at that
moment in time?
Thanks

I tend to get very sick from the heat,
which of course makes my anxiety worse b/c
I think I am going to get sick and die.
Get very weak, dizzy, and this is from
being in it for just a few mins.

I was sometimes made panicky by strong
sunlight on a hot day and found wearing a
hat helped

My heart rate increases when I get hot.
Since being warm and an elevated heart
rate are often symptoms during a panic
attack, sometimes this can induce a panic
attack. I try to keep cool. If I am
going to be in the heat for any amount of
time, I bring a cold drink. Sometimes I
drink it. Sometimes I just put it
against my wrists or head to cool me down
quickly.
