I am BEYOND fing exhausted. We are possibly get severe storms ALL THIS WEEKEND. And EVEN MONDAY. That is FOUR DAYS FULL of severe potential. I can’t even begin to describe how exhausted, terrified and frustrated I am right now. I just want a GOOD DRY FCCKING WEEK IS THAT TOO MUCH TO GODDAMN ASK? I guess it is. This is my life now isn’t it? No rest, no relaxing weeks, just severe weather every goddamned week. I’m about ready to just quit.

I KNOW it is way too early to tell but for me in PA, the 4th of July weekend looks horrible in terms of weather with severe potentials climbing as we get towards it. I’m trying so hard to be strong and brave but I am so effing scared and can’t stop on and off crying. I am so tired of all of this severe weather and severe potentials. I’m also attending IOP this week and I’m so nervous about that too as well as the heatwave. I’m just so overwhelmed. I can’t stop crying and shaking and my anxiety just won’t stfu. I hate that I’m saying this but I’m honestly starting to miss winter. Yeah we got a blizzard but no power outage potential, no bad winds. It was calm.
This summer is really starting to suck.

Hi, all. I am an individual who suffers from extreme weather and power outage anxiety ((I am getting help)) and I need advice and experiences. Initially, my mom and I had considered GENERAC and they were supposed to come yesterday. They never did and they never answered our phone calls, so I’m rather disgusted and frustrated because I need this peace of mind as soon as remotely possible.
So, I am considering getting Jackery for the house. I want to be able to power the kitchen, the tv room and the computer room for at least two days. I understand that one unit alone will not do that and that I need to add expansion packs and units. Does anyone have any advice and experiences with theirs? I would love to hear them. Thank you.

Now I found out not only are we getting severe weather in the morning but we’re also gonna have wind gusts of up to 40mph all day. I’m so beyond scared of trees falling onto my house, I’m sick physically and am struggling so so badly. (Yes I have a therapist and I am in process of IOP, please do not give me that advice as I am already working on it)

So I’m hearing that Thursday may be very very bad and all I’m terrified about and can’t stop freaking out over is the likelihood of a tornado hitting my house in Pittsburgh. I live in Squirrel Hill and I’m just sick with anxiety and can’t stop crying and shaking. ((If you have nothing nice to say, then kindly scroll by and leave your negative invalidations to yourself. You don’t need to tell me to get help, I am getting help.))

I just saw there’s already a 15% risk of severe weather for a huge portion including my area on Thursday and I heard NWS say it’s looking like it’s going to be volatile. I’m sick to my stomach and I can’t stop shaking and crying. I’m so effing scared.

We’re in the yellow risk for tomorrow and I’m so terrified and sick with anxiety. I’m so beyond tired of these constant severe risks every single week. I am so scared it’s going to just continue on throughout the entire summer and that we will never have a severe free week like ever.

Every morning when I wake up a day closer to the impact day, I feel sick and nauseous and dizzy with anxiety. My chest pounds and my heart palpitates like crazy.

I’m going to the mall with my mom on Sunday to hopefully be distracted from it. But my anxiety won’t stfu and is telling me sh— like “What if the mall loses power?” “What if the emergency hotel you booked loses power too?” “What if it all goes dark for days upon days?”

It won’t shut up and I’m so exhausted. I keep on and off crying and shaking everywhere. I’m so tired.

So I’ve been on Busporin, Zoloft and Clonadine for my anxiety for a while and I don’t think it’s helping. I’m so scared. I have had to take an Ativan every day or day before that we are expecting severe storms and I don’t know what else to do. I feel completely helpless and hopeless. I’m so beyond terrified that I’m going to d—. And I don’t want to d—. I want to live. I want to thrive. And I am so tired of feeling this way.

Hi, everyone.

I am an individual with severe weather anxiety and I am currently in search of the perfect generator that can power at least a portion like one or two full rooms of my house. My budget is probably like $5,000 ish or under. Are there any recommendations? Greatly appreciated!

Hey all
I just started taking the medication about a week ago and while things are maybe slowly getting better I still have trouble sleeping. I can no longer take naps either because my anxiety spikes me horrendously and every morning when I wake up is the worst feeling. Does anyone else relate to this? Is this normal? What should I do? I would appreciate any advice as I’m doing my best to be patient with the process but can’t live this way (little to no sleep).

Hi all. I am someone with severe storm and power outage anxiety and enough is enough. I am looking for a generator or two(?) to power at least two rooms in my house for $5k or under. Any recommendations? Thank you all!

Is this the norm for you guys? I’m using it to power a small tv and just wanted to make sure that this is a normal case of battery power.

Hello all! I am 32 years old on the spectrum and had bought both a Jackery and a BLUETTI Elite 30 V2 (with an additional one on the way!). I am buying these all for power outage emergencies and I am wondering how long it can do for a WiFi router? Like an 8w? How long has that lasted for anyone?

I have a lot of anxiety about power outages and severe storms that cause them a lot so having these things I think will really benefit me? I’d love to hear some stories and experiences with yours!

Also I would love some tips on how to prolong the battery life for the unit as a whole please! 💖💖💖

Thank you!
