I moved here from West Texas in January. West Texas is extremely dry with humidity being around 6-15 percent. As it gets hotter the humidity is starting to make me feel really sick, like I'm going to throw up. Heat is not an issue for me. I grew up working long days on a farm and 14 hour days in the oilfield, all of it under the blazing West Texas sun. I've never once had any issues. I am well hydrated, eat a relatively healthy diet, in pretty decent shape. But after being outside in San Antonio for just ten to fifteen minutes I feel like I need to lay down. It makes me feel SO SICK and exhausted. It's so overwhelming. I got a job working oilfield at night, because back home it's cool to cold at night, even in the summer. But I've learned the heat and humidity at night is still high. I need some tips or advice for how to acclimate myself to this climate because going back home isn't an option. I have to live here so I have to find a way to get used to this humidity. Please help.
