It is 2024, four years ago you posted this. I am constantly googling and researching some type of answer or description that matches how I feel with the sudden change of weather and air pressure or whatever it is. It always hits around this time of the year for me I'm in California, Los Angeles to be exact. Everyone around me thinks I am nuts in my head everytime I describe how sensitive I seem to be by changes in weather and barometric pressure in the air. I can feel it and I can hear every ounce of it. It puts me in a bad mood and I feel like crap. It's almost like this fear of a lightning storm is taking place and I can't describe anything past it. I get frustrated easily and I don't like going out when its happening. I don't know why or what but thought it was only me.

Hi Amy. I just get sleepy, feel kinda drugged. No other symptoms. Judging by my cat, it's a thing. Also have searched online and found nothing. I do find that if I keep physically active, the feeling kinda goes away.

I have rheumatoid arthritis and I can definitely feel it when the weather's going to change.  I saw an earlier post about the affect on autism/asberger's.  I have adhd and never really thought about how the weather might affect it.  Guess I'll have to pay more attention. Get it? rofl  Seriously, though, I will truly try to remember to think about how I'm doing brain wise when I have a weather related RA flare.

I get bad migraine like symptoms when the pressure is high, and when the pressure changes rapidly, I am also a walking rain alert: a building mild sinus headache will suddenly cease right before a downpour. I've had to relocate due to Chinooks.

It's not surprisingly really we have so many members talking about this: we are almost entirely made of water!

I told my darling wife that when the barometer went low I had to adjust my internal swim bladder, like a fish. She said no, you farted you dirt bag.

I am thinking is this phenomenon neural atypical?

And if so, what that means?

Neuro diversitility? (a word?)

Go to nature and avoid places with a certain something that is sensed? Or go elsewhere?

That place may be in nature where it's quiet...

But not necessarily and we're tree hugging types Maybe that's what I want to believe : that we're non political tree hugging nature lovers who would love to teach the world to sing
