Relapse Triggers...and Other Cause and Effect Situations That My Medical Conditions

There are so many variables when it comes to my MS and other conditions. Heat causes me to shut down depending on how hot I get  I can go from needing to sit while I talk or carry on to not being able to keep up with simple conversation and lift my head or sleeping without waking until I cool off. Energy exertion like physical activity any repetitive movement has the same effect on me. In any of these situations I can get upset over the tiniest things and really fly off the handle. I start getting warm at 75 and Extreme heat is anything in the 90s or above. I get it that everyone has hard days  and I try not to act like my days are harder because I feel like that statement is relative. My Anxiety is a barrel of fun too. I cannot seem to enjoy much of anything. I try to ignore it but it drives me nuts. I tend to organize excessively. I get going and have a hard time settling.  I cannot handle talking on the phone. Hearing the phone ring is enough to upset me. The Problem I run into trying to clean or organize is I have herniated discs which hurt. Cleaning of any kind leads to over heating and physical exertion. Sleep is another variable if I get too much or not enough it can ruin my day.  In either case I can be groggy and easily upset. Naturally with any of my issues I struggle to do things on a daily basis. from simple tasks and daily chores to working outside or at a job or any kind.
