I feel sleepy lately I think because of the heat LOL!
It’s hot out there, y’all. And if the extreme heat much of North America is experiencing this summer has gotten you feeling sluggish, grumpy or worse, you’re not alone; in a recent Yahoo News/YouGov poll 62% of Americans said the heat was affecting their mood. Most of the poll’s respondents cited the high temperatures for making them exhausted, frustrated and angry. Studies have also shown again and again that hot weather is linked to an increase in aggression, violence and even suicidal behaviors.
But what exactly is it about the heat that can so easily make emotions flare? And why can even the act of hiding out in air-conditioned quarters — and missing out on outdoor fun — bring us down and spark what's called "sunshine guilt"? Here's what experts say.
