Can't tolerate the heat

It’s 1030am the feel like temperature is 102 I’m sweaty a little dizzy until I sit for a spell in air.

These AP are no joke when it comes to the heat.

Get as few clothes on as possible and mist yourself with a spray bottle.

That’s what I do.

We don’t have A/C.

But it doesn’t get hot here very, very often.

Both cold and heat affect me a lot now that I take APs. I used to adjust easily

I have the same issue. Can’t bear the heat anymore on Invega!

I used to live on the equator where it was hot all day pre-sz. And I had no issue with the heat at all.

Starting to question this invega a lot. Here lately the heat, weight gain and tiredness is starting to add up.

Clozapine was even worse for me. Dizzy all the time. Even when it wasn’t hot and I slept 16 hours a day.

Zyprexa didn’t do anything against voices.

Invega will have to do.

Yeah the voices seem to be gone unless I’m sick or under a lot of stress.

The air is so thick I’ve had to stop and breathe. It’s gonna be hot everyday.

Took the dog for a walk this morning, and I could drink the air – that’s how humid it is. It’s not even officially summer yet, and I’m already sick of the heat and looking forward to fall lol

I live in Appalachia (near the east coast). We get rain a lot and the heat doesn’t go above like 80 degrees here but humidity makes it worse. I’m guessing you’re in the south?

My son lives near Phoenix and they are having a heat wave. It’s still 90 degrees outside at midnight.

We are in the 90s during the day but with the humidity it feels like 100.

Our ac stopped working yesterday but a guy came out and fixed it. I caught it early. The house only got to 76 degrees before it was fixed. It took a while to cook back down. We keep it at 68 in the daytime and 65 at night.

Sorry you’re struggling with heat, @Turtle43. I have heat intolerance, too, but not as bad. But when I was on Invega Sustenna, I couldn’t handle heat at all.

Drink lots of water; stay hydrated.

It hasn’t been too hot here lately. We’ve been in the 22-24 Celsius range.
