YES I hate heat too!

I've been to Minnesota twice during the summer and it's definitely hot there. Once it gets hotter than 80 F I start to feel the energy leaving my body. Even in my own house if it gets hotter than 74 F I sometimes start getting heat flashes. I don't know what it is, but heat makes me really uncomfortable and quick to anger. I feel snappy anytime I get stuck in hot room. Too much sunlight also gives me anxiety, always has.

I think a good amount of bipolars are sensitive to the weather, but don't always fit into the SAD or Summer SAD subtype. Even in Washington state it gets too hot and sunny for me half the year. In recent years it doesn't even seem to rain as much. Alaska during summer was perfect.
