What is weather dependence and its features
First, it's worth understanding the terminology. Most people combine three terms at once into one concept, and this is wrong. There are three main names that describe the body's response to changing weather conditions:
- weather sensitivity,
- weather dependence,
- Meteoneurosis.
Practically each of us, one way or another, reacts to changes in weather conditions. Especially for sudden changes in air temperature or climatic changes.
Most of the time, this reaction is minor and doesn't last long. It can appear as:
- headache,
- weaknesses,
- drowsiness.

People can react to such weather changes at any age. Even children tend to change their mood depending on the weather conditions.

Now that we have understood the terminology, we can proceed to a more detailed study of this problem.
Causes of weather dependence
As we have already said, weather sensitivity can manifest itself in almost all people. The reason for such a reaction of the body can be a period of hormonal and age-related changes. As for meteorological dependence, then everything is already a little different. So, the reasons for weather dependence are called:
- Heredity. As scientists have proven, 10% of weather-dependent people have this ailment passed down from their parents or grandparents.
- Cardiovascular diseases. Approximately 40% of all weather dependent – these are people who have serious problems with the cardiovascular system.
- Past and chronic diseases. The remaining 50% of people with weather dependence began to feel it after past illnesses or as a result of their transition to a chronic form. Among the diseases that can cause meteorological dependence are:
- atherosclerosis;
- hypertension;
- hypotension;
- respiratory diseases.
It is also worth noting that the presence of weather dependence in young children may be the result of a difficult pregnancy or childbirth. Often, post-term or premature babies suffer from such reactions.
The main symptoms of weather dependence
Among the symptoms of meteorological dependence, primary ones are distinguished, that is, those symptoms that are felt by both weather-sensitive people and weather-dependent people. These include:
- headaches;
- drowsiness;
- fatigue;
- bad mood;
- irritability.
In some cases, people may feel anxious during periods of calm weather, and adolescents often show apathy during such periods. This is mainly due to the hormonal background and does not last long.
But with secondary signs that are inherent only to weather-dependent people, things are much worse. After all, during even minor changes in such people, chronic diseases can worsen and old injuries “remind of themselves”.
Such reactions can be dangerous to health and even human life. Therefore, people with secondary symptoms of meteorological dependence should pay special attention to the treatment of the main problem, that is, the exacerbation of the disease.
How to get rid of weather dependence
In fact, weather dependence cannot be cured. After all, it comes from many factors that, unfortunately, a person cannot influence. At the same time, it is possible to reduce the reaction of the body, and, subject to all conditions, to minimize it.
In order to get rid of weather dependence you need:
- Strengthen your immune system. Balance your diet so that it contains a sufficient amount of trace elements and vitamins that your body needs most.
- Avoid fatty and heavy foods during periods of significant weather change. The activity of the digestive system during such periods decreases.
- Avoid strenuous exercise and long journeys during the changing seasons.
- Give yourself a psychological release and try not to worry about trifles. The mood during periods of exacerbation of weather dependence is already to hell, so you should not worsen it even more. After all, depression is not far away.
- Don't watch the weather forecast. Strange as it may seem, scientists have proven that when a person is unaware of impending weather changes, they are easier to bear.
In addition, you can resort to folk methods from weather dependence, which can help minimize the reaction of the body.
