I KNEW IT!!! The sun just..hurts. now. Regardless of latitude, direct sunlight deadass insta-sizzles my skin. Worth it though, my mental health is sorted. UV blocking activewear handles the rest.

Holy shit thats why I'm so temperature sensitive?
Crismus@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 1y
Yea same here. I have to sit in front of my AC and bringing in the groceries makes me overheat so much I have to use cold water and the AC to stop it.
I grew up in deserts like the Mojave and used to be able to work in 115 degrees. Now I can't surpass 75 degrees.

My doctors office actually notified me that I'm on 2 medications that make me extra heat sensitive.
I appreciate it. This is a good reminder to folks to check.

Bonus+ Citrus, especially grapefruit, can enhance the effects of certain medications as well.

I thought grapefruit blocked the channels that lots of drugs use?

Meds enhance the effects of grapefruit?
superb@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 4 pts · 1y
No, it can make meds less effective

Great, I take a stimulant, a beta blocker, and an antipsychotic. I’m cooked.

Literally apparently. Man this is good to know, specifically antihistamines since I'm allergic to basically everything green outside..
