I don't feel anxious, I get in a low mood which improves once the storm breaks. Do you think there is a reason why you no longer experience anxiety before storms?
I think it depends on the fact that both my anxiety and depression grew better.
I wonder whether my mood's often extreme reactions to weather are a sign of bipolarity, but I don't think so, because 'mania' seems like something much more extreme than I experience and seems to have different symptoms. I know I probably don't have seasonal affective disorder, because this happens to me year-round: if it is about to rain or snow, I am in a low mood and if it is sunny, I can be very anxious, agitated, and find it hard to concentrate. Is there a weather-reaction disorder? If so, is there something to take for it?
I used to get agitated when if it's sunny: i believed to be caused by high pressure in the atmosphere: i read somewhere that research found out that high or low atmosphere pressure might influence/alter brain functioning, especially if you're brain is sensitive already .
