Did you get heatstroke in summer?

I was very angry when things went wrong. A little friction, maybe even a big fight. Since the beginning of summer, have you found yourself in a worse mood? If so, I'll give you a reason to be angry. Congratulations, you probably have "emotional heatstroke"!

Cause: The hot weather affects the hypothalamic emotion regulation center.

In summer, some people will be agitated, because the hot weather affects the emotional regulation center of human hypothalamus. Some people, even if the environment is not hot, will feel annoyed when they see the bright lights outside the window. In addition to temperature changes, bad mood is also related to sweating, lack of sleep and insufficient diet.

These bad factors will lead to electrolyte metabolism disorder, affect brain nerve activity, and lead to abnormal mood and behavior. In addition, in summer, people's autonomic nervous system is prone to disorder. The autonomic nervous system is in charge of the human digestive system and also affects the endocrine system. Autonomic nerve disorder can make people dream more and reduce the quality of sleep.

In addition, not only the natural high temperature, but also the urban environment and social pressure. High pressure and high speed are the main rhythms of life in some big cities, and the environmental, resource and social problems brought by rapid development will still exist for some time.

What kind of person is most prone to emotional heatstroke?

The internal cause of "emotional heatstroke" is, in the final analysis, the poor adaptability of the human body to the environment. According to individual differences, the following five categories of people are usually more prone to "emotional heatstroke".

First, people who have been under intense pressure for a long time. For example, some office "white-collar workers" often work overtime, eat irregularly, and face repayment pressure and workplace competition every day. On a hot summer day, a little thing may make them burst into negative emotions that have been suppressed.

Second, people who are not good at communicating with others. Such people are not good at self-regulation when they have nowhere to talk when they are in trouble. In the restless "sauna days", they are more likely to lose control.

Third, people with weak psychological endurance and big mood swings. This season, they often have some abnormal performances, such as accidents such as knocking over thermos bottles and causing burns; I can't lift my spirits and get excited when I go to work; Being depressed and unable to meditate; Liver fire increases with temperature.

Fourth, he is a competitive person. This kind of person has a distinct personality, and it is easier to rub against others in hot weather. They are determined to distinguish between high and low.

5. People with other diseases. People with hypertension, diabetes, asthma, anorexia and other diseases will be agitated when the hot weather leads to the recurrence of old diseases. "Emotional heatstroke" may also lead to accidents such as arrhythmia and elevated blood pressure.

How to manage "summer mood"

1) Pay attention to diet and daily life in summer. The weather is hot, try to increase the rest time. Diet should be light and less greasy. Drink plenty of water, regulate body temperature and improve blood circulation. Eat more "fire-clearing" foods and drinks, such as fresh vegetables, fruits, green tea, beer, coffee, chrysanthemums, honeysuckle and so on. All have a good "clearing fire" effect. At the same time, eat less spicy food, drink less spirits and don't smoke.

2) Avoid going out in the hottest time, and don't stay in a closed space for too long. Pay attention to the ventilation of the living room. Ventilation can quickly disperse the hot air around the human body, reduce air pollution and make people feel "cool". Especially when the outdoor temperature is low in the morning and evening, doors and windows should be opened. When the outdoor temperature is high at noon, it is advisable to close the doors and windows, close the curtains, and start the fan and air conditioner.

3) Pay attention to psychological adjustment. In the hot summer, we should "calm down, calm down, don't be impatient, calm down". If something goes wrong, you should learn to transfer your emotions and "treat them coldly."

4) Have a sense of humor. Humor can not only bring joy to life, but also dilute contradictions, relax mood, eliminate depression, relax nervous nerves in humorous words, play a role in self-liberation and help to maintain a good mood.
