    I don’t need that reminder.

    AuDHD is sufficient to to keep me from remembering to drink.

    How many times will I repeatedly boil the kettle, and it cool down again, before I remember, today? Daily average is around 4.

    I get headaches when I’m dehydrated. In fact, I used to get a lot of headaches, and it was years before I realized the cause was dehydration.

    Drink plenty of water, people. Other bad things can happen when you’re dehydrated, none of them good, many of them painful. I’m not one of those people that recommend drinking a given amount of water each day, but if you’re thirsty, you’re already dehydrated. The amount of water you need varies based on your physiology, exercise, weather, food, and probably a dozen other things.

      Yus.

      Same spirit as my old quip of:

      If ignorance is bliss, give me agony.

            Perhaps may manage to get more benefit from the sun, by keeping it to <15minute sips, and eliminating sun-sensitivity aggravating toxins from the diet, like all the “seed oils” (and all the toxic residues and all the toxic changes to the structure from the processing and the addativees hiding its oxidised and rancid). Maybe an increase in oily fish, and perhaps mushrooms if you can handle them, can also help. Got some of the northern ginger genes in me, so had to learn this stuff for myself too. Getting sun’s one of the healthiest things, up there with good sleep, so it’s worth the patient cautious efforts to acclimate to it. Sunset & Sunrise are handy for at least getting infra red. Mid day gets the vitamin d generating stuff, which if managing doses carefully, can help acclimate, and has feedback loops to help handling getting more of that goodness without burning.
